This new study was advised and recommended to the Minister by the National ICT Advisory Council as a means to objectively assess his own intuit that Jamaica rankings in survey may not reflect our reality and provide a baseline for authoritative reporting to the various surveys. If you look at the survey questions across the board with respect of mobility and mobile penetration, the interpretations in context might be improved with better understanding of the data. For example, we know that with higher mobile penetration comes the likelihood of increased internet access with the capabilities of devices and how services are provisioned. But the indicators for internet access seems not to embrace that a higher rate might be tracked to mobile penetration. Maybe we need to know more about the devices, usage at that device and so on.
