Thanks, I understand both your replies, but maybe my question was not asked correctly, let try another way 
A) OR are 'passing homes' or making FTTP available at an increasing rate per week/month.
B) OR are also 'connecting' homes once orders placed at an increasing/decreasing/stable? rate per week/month.
I was curious if the rate of (A) was higher than (B), ie they are passing homes at a faster rate than connecting/receiving orders? As I'm assuming 'B' will be partially funding 'A', ie they dont get the orders, the rate of passing will slow?
Aha - I see what you mean now, mate.
A will always be higher than B, until such times as the FTTP infrastructure has been completely put in place.
I'm not part of the book-keeping side of things, but I would humbly suggest that B isn't actually funding any part of A at this time. I think the two entities will likely be kept separate for financial reporting as if there wasn't even one single person who had taken up FTTP once available, the roll-out would still continue as a commercial/part funded project.
Believe me when I say, A is on a continuous upward trend as we employ more people and learn and educate ourselves from previous mistakes made. So in effect, the chances are the gap between A and B will increase further as we pass more homes quicker than ever before. Hope this makes sense ??
