Labour is demanding some certainty from the government over its plans for broadband policy.

It follows the government's axing of the Broadband Investment Fund and indications it may be a year before new initiatives are up and running.

Labour Party IT spokeswoman Clare Curran says that's not good enough and the sector will suffer damage as a result.

She says the government must release its plans for broadband and the timeframe for their implementation.
