Island communities are set to vote in elections and referendums on the same day as the rest of the country.

It’s as Seán Kyne, Government Chief Whip and Minister for the Irish Language, the Gaeltacht and the Islands has today confirmed Government approval for legislation which will ensure that this happens.

The Minister joined Ivan on the show to talk about, but Ivan was also very interested to get his take on the continued delays to the National Broadband Plan.
