Ofcom has unveiled new proposals to encourage the rollout of super-fast broadband across the UK.
The regulator is proposing that BT's fibre lines are opened so rival firms such as Sky and TalkTalk can provide their own services to consumers.
BT would then be able to set prices for these new wholesale products to enable them to make a fair rate of return.
Ofcom hopes its plans will lead to millions more consumers enjoying speeds of up to 20 megabits per second.
