&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;In July 2018, the government announced new funding to benefit rural businesses and communities with improved broadband access. In addition to the £30 million investment announced in 2017 for the Rural Broadband Infrastructure Scheme, a further £45 million is to be made available.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The announcement follows the launch of the Future Telecoms Infrastructure Review, which plans on prioritising hard-to-reach rural areas for a roll-out of full fibre connectivity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The boost in funding is to be available to local authorities through grants, where broadband speeds of 30 Megabits per second (Mbps) or faster are either unavailable or unplanned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Infrastructure Scheme funding is part of at least £3.5 billion planned investment into rural economies by 2020, with the increase being due to the large number of local authority applications.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The government’s Superfast Broadband Programme is working towards providing access to approximately 97% of premises in the UK over the next few years. Those rural areas which are not currently scheduled to receive broadband under this programme are those which are intended to benefit from the funding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rural Affairs Minister Lord Gardiner announced the funding boost as he was visiting the North York Moors National Park, in North Yorkshire – one of the local authorities that has received a grant offer of over £11m.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lord Gardiner said:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
“Rural areas should not be left behind in the connectivity slow lane, missing out on the opportunities high speed broadband can bring. The funding made available through the Rural Broadband Infrastructure Scheme champions our countryside communities and businesses by opening up access to broadband of at least 30 Mps, in some of the most hard-to-reach areas.”&lt;br /&gt;
