website further states
that “some groups
sponsored by other na-
tional governments have
advised that children be
discouraged from using
wireless phones at all”.
For example, the Stewart
Report from the United
Kingdom [“UK”] made
such a recommendation
in December 2000. In
this report a group of
independent experts
noted that no evidence
exists that using a
cell phone causes
brain tumors or other
ill effects. [The UK’s]
recommendation to
limit cell phone use
by children was strictly
precautionary; it was
not based on scientifi c
evidence that any health
hazard exists. A copy
of the UK’s leafl et is
available at http://www.
dh.gov.uk (search “mo-
bile”), or you can write to:
NRPB, Chilton, Didcot,
Oxon OX11 ORQ, United
Kingdom. Copies of the
UK’s annual reports on
mobile phones and RF
are available online at
www.iegmp.org.uk and
http://www.hpa.org.
uk/radiation/ (search
“mobile”). Parents who
wish to reduce their
children’s RF exposure
may choose to restrict
their children’s wireless
phone use.
Where can I get further
information about RF
emissions?
