CLIVE SELLEY TO BE CEO OF OPENREACH
 
Brings proven track record in network management and technological innovation
 
Announcement made as Openreach celebrates tenth anniversary
 
Clive Selley is to be the new CEO of Openreach. Clive, who is currently CEO of BT Technology, Service and Operations (BT TSO) will replace Joe Garner, who is leaving to become CEO of Nationwide Building Society. The handover will take place this quarter.
 
     Clive is one of the UK's foremost experts in network technology and digital infrastructure. He brings considerable technological and management experience, having held numerous senior positions at BT, both in the UK and overseas. He has specialised in networks, software development, IT and various forms of engineering.
 
      He is currently Group Chief Information Officer as well as CEO of BT TSO. The latter is the 'engine room' of BT, responsible for the company's core networks and IT systems across the globe - including TV, Mobile and Conferencing - as well as its world class research and development arm at Adastral Park, Suffolk.
 
     As CEO of BT TSO, Clive is responsible for twelve thousand staff, eight thousand contractors and a multi-billion pound budget. He chairs BT's cyber security council and has an extensive knowledge of regulatory affairs.
 
     He has been at the forefront of innovation at BT driving changes that have benefited the entire industry as well as millions of customers across the UK. He has overseen BT's development of fibre broadband, including the doubling of speeds in 2012 and the pioneering research into G.Fast technology. His extensive experience and knowledge will prove invaluable in his new role.
 
     Clive is 54 years old and married with two children. His successor at BT TSO will be announced in due course.
 
     Speaking today, Selley said: "I am honoured to have been asked to lead Openreach at this important point in its history. The huge investment it has made over the past decade has made the UK a broadband leader, and we need to build on those foundations by deploying fibre to further communities and by rolling out ultrafast broadband. Customer service is a top priority of mine and I am committed to delivering further improvements by working closely with all industry partners who rely on our network to serve their customers.
 

 
 
     "Openreach is at the heart of the UK economy with our open access network underpinning a ferociously competitive broadband market. That has benefited consumers and businesses greatly. 
 
     "The engineers are the lifeblood of Openreach and I have been hugely impressed by their tireless work in challenging circumstances during the current floods. They will play a crucial role in the coming decade as they have done to date".
 
     Gavin Patterson, BT Group CEO said: "Clive is a hugely talented individual and I am delighted he has agreed to lead Openreach. He has an unrivalled knowledge of networks and engineering and is ideally suited to take the UK from a superfast nation to an ultrafast one. He supports our vision for the UK's digital future and will play a key role in ensuring that businesses, consumers and communities receive the services they need and deserve." 
 
     Clive's appointment coincides with the tenth anniversary of Openreach, BT's local access network business. Launched on January 11 2006, Openreach is a highly regulated business that operates at arm's length from the rest of BT Group under a regulatory model known as functional separation. Its role is to manage, maintain and upgrade the tens of millions of lines that run from homes and businesses to telephone exchanges across the UK where they are then connected to operators' core networks. BT's core network is managed by BT TSO.
 
     The UK market has changed beyond recognition since Openreach was created. During the past decade BT has invested around £20 billion on its networks with more than half of that via Openreach. The company is now planning further large scale investment with the aim being that ten million premises will have access to ultrafast broadband by the end of 2020 and the majority of the UK by 2025.
 
     The past decade has seen an explosion in broadband usage with the number of premises using the service over Openreach's network rising from under seven million when Openreach was created to 19.6 million as at the end of September 2015.
 
     Competition has also flourished with the number of unbundled lines - where an external communications provider runs the service themselves - increasing from virtually nothing to almost ten million in the same period. This has been an astonishing transformation as the number of unbundled lines now exceeds the number provided by BT and smaller CPs who buy a white label service.
 
     Fibre broadband has been another success story with the technology first deployed in 2009 and availability now standing at more than 24 million premises. This has been one of the fastest deployments of fibre broadband anywhere in the world and other countries such as Australia are now following Openreach's successful roll out model.
 
     The UK leads the EU 'big five' for superfast broadband coverage and take up. Ninety per cent of UK premises can already access fibre broadband and take up is fifty per cent higher in the UK than in Germany. The UK has also been found to be the most competitive broadband market in Europe and to have some of the lowest prices among the 'big five'.

BT WELCOMES CMA'S APPROVAL OF EE ACQUISITION
 
BT today welcomed the Competition and Markets Authority's (CMA) decision to approve its acquisition of EE, unconditionally without remedies.
 
     The CMA's decision paves the way for BT to complete the acquisition of EE in the coming weeks and to incorporate the business into the wider BT Group in the months to come.
 
     There will be a distinct EE line of business following completion of the acquisition. This will be led by Marc Allera who will become EE CEO following completion of the deal.
 
    BT Chief Executive Gavin Patterson said: "It is great news that the CMA has approved our acquisition of EE. We are pleased they have found there to be no significant lessening of competition following an in-depth investigation lasting more than ten months.
 
     "The combined BT and EE will be a digital champion for the UK, providing high levels of investment and driving innovation in a highly competitive market. I have no doubt that consumers, businesses and communities will benefit as we combine the power of fibre broadband with the convenience of leading edge mobile services. I look forward to welcoming EE into the BT family".
 
     Following today's approval BT will commence the formal process of completing the deal. A prospectus will be issued in the week commencing January 25 with the deal set to close on January 29 when Deutsche Telekom and Orange will receive shares in BT. BT will report its Q3 2015/16 results on February 1.
 
     Following completion of the deal Deutsche Telekom will have twelve per cent of BT shares and Orange will have four per cent. A representative of Deutsche Telekom will be appointed to the BT Board in due course.

BT ANNOUNCES NEW STRUCTURE
 
Six lines of business to be supported by BT Technology, Service and Operations
 
New division to serve businesses and the public sector in the UK and Ireland
 
EE brand to be retained
 
BT today announced a new organisational structure that will take effect from April. This follows its acquisition of EE, the UK's leading mobile network operator.
 
     Under this structure, there will be six lines of business. Two will serve consumers, two will focus on businesses and the public sector - one in the UK and Ireland and one globally - and two will provide wholesale services to other industry players.
 
     The lines of businesses are:
 
     Consumer - the largest ISP in the UK, BT Consumer will continue to serve ten million households with a mix of superfast broadband, telephony, TV and mobile services. Its CEO will continue to be John Petter.
 
     EE - EE will focus largely on the consumer market retaining its brand, its network and its hundreds of high street stores. It will serve its customers with advanced mobile services, broadband and TV. It will also continue to deliver the Emergency Services Network contract which was awarded to EE late last year.  Its CEO is Marc Allera.
 
     Business and Public Sector - this is a new division with around £5 billion of revenues. It will serve businesses - large and small - as well as the public sector in the UK and Ireland. It will be comprised of the existing BT Business along with EE's business division and those parts of BT Global Services that are UK focused. Its CEO is Graham Sutherland.
 
     Global Services - Global Services will serve the communications needs of multinational companies and financial services organisations headquartered in the UK and across the world. It will also focus on serving major public and private sector customers outside the UK. Luis Alvarez will continue as its CEO.
 
     Wholesale and Ventures - this division, which provides wholesale services to more than 1400 communications providers, will be expanded to include EE's successful MVNO business as well as some specialist businesses such as Fleet, Payphones and Directories. Gerry McQuade, currently Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Business at EE, will be its CEO.    
 
     Openreach - operating at arm's length from the rest of BT, Openreach will be unaffected by the re-organisation. It provides all companies with equal access to BT's local access network in Great Britain and is heavily regulated with more than 90 per cent of its revenues coming from price regulated services. Clive Selley takes over as its CEO today.
 
     The six divisions will be supported by Technology, Service and Operations which is currently responsible for BT's 'core' networks in the UK and overseas, its IT platforms and its global Research and Development arm. Howard Watson takes over as its CEO today, replacing Clive Selley.
 
     A new IT and Mobile business unit within TSO will be led by EE's Fotis Karonis. Fotis will join Howard's leadership team as well as support Marc Allera as EE's CIO.
 
     Group Chief Executive Gavin Patterson said: "I'm delighted we have now completed our acquisition of EE. That is great news for our shareholders, our customers and for UK plc given we will continue to invest and innovate. Customers will benefit as we combine the power of fibre broadband with the convenience of mobile.
 
     "We will operate a multi brand strategy with UK customers being able to choose a mix of BT, EE or Plusnet services, depending on which suit them best. The acquisition enables us to offer great value bundles of services and customers are set to be the winners as we compete for their business.
 
     "The acquisition provides us with a chance to refresh our structure and we have done that by creating a major new division that will focus on businesses and the public sector in the UK and Ireland. We want to support those sectors by offering customers the very best services whether that be dedicated private lines, network products such as fibre broadband, mobile solutions, IT services or cyber expertise to keep them safe.
 
     "We will continue to offer many of these services to multinational companies and major overseas customers via our Global Services division. It is an important part of the company and this new structure will enable it to sharpen its focus on its key areas of strength".
