The home of the Scottish parliament, the Holyrood building, is planning to spend up to £50,000 to boost indoor mobile phone reception, according to the The Scotsman.
The Newspaper says Scots MPs have been unhappy with reception since the building opened several years ago. The parliament uses Vodafone as its network supplier, but apparently the building itself is to blame, rather than the operator, for the weak signal. Work on improving coverage has commenced with a system of Pico cells being used to increase mobile reception. For £50,000, you’d hope the MPs would find something useful to say. Martin
