Report by the German Government on research results related to the options for lowering the emission from mobile communication technology and to possible health risks
The German Government monitors and accompanies the political and scientific discussion on the possible health risks of electromagnetic fields with great interest. In 2001 it set forth precautionary measures in the field of mobile telecommunication systems, which has intensified research in this field.
The Lower House of the German Parliament has asked the Federal Government to submit a report on current research results every two years.
