At the City Development Committee this week there was a report about delivering a strong free Wi-Fi system in the Waterfront. I recognise that there is a need for this development and I welcome it. We also need to ensure that free Wi-Fi is available in the city centre and in the district shopping areas such as the Perth Road.
We also need to ensure that free Wi-Fi is available across the city. There are great computing facilities as well as free Wi-Fi in our network of community libraries. The libraries are not open all the time, though. Given that what is wrongly called Welfare Reform is impacting on people across the city and that people are made to account for their activity online we should look at making sure that all the communities of Dundee have access to good quality free Wi-Fi. Why not aim to be the most connected city in Scotland and have the most extensive free Wi-Fi network.
It is all very well offering free Wi-Fi to shoppers and tourists but all the people of Dundee including those living in areas of deprivation should benefit from this sort infrastructure as well as the many tourists that we hope will come to Dundee. I would like to see free Wi-Fi as a benefit to all Dundonians, it should be available for the many not just the few visiting the city.
