Government claim "no such risk"In January 2005 the radiological protection board (NRPB) presented to government a report on mobile phones and health. In the NRPB report the governments health advisors on radiation protection provided evidence that there was a risk associated with the technology by stating... "There is now scientific evidence however that suggests that there may be biological effects occurring at exposures below these [radiation emission] guidelines". Yet on the 3rd of March 2006 in the house of commons, in his opening speech, the government's Under-secretary of state Jim Fitzpatrick stated.. "..there is concern and fear because of a perceived health risk, although all the evidence shows that there is no such risk." Ironically, only five minutes into his speech the under-secretary of state quoted the actual paragraph from the NRPB report as shown above. It makes one wonder which part of "evidence however that suggests" the minister doesn't understand? More on this plus the full transcript can be downloaded from this page.. homepage.ntlworld.com/cad-designs/prism/news/pm_bill_2ndreading.htm
