Chairman Mike Rake

We're absolutely willing to form an Openreach board that would have an independent chairman, a majority of independent directors. We're willing to give more authority to Openreach in determination of its capital investment programme, but we believe very strongly ... that this would be the wrong time to break up BT and distract us from the remaining investment to get superfast and ultrafast broadband right across the country in the next two to three years.
