Telecommunications Infrastructure (Leasehold Property) Act 2021

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This Act makes it simpler for telecoms companies to install broadband and phone infrastructure (cables and equipment) in leasehold properties (flats and shared buildings) without needing permission from every single leaseholder. It speeds up getting highspeed internet to more people, but gives property owners less control over their buildings.
