UK Health Security Agency: 6G
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what guidance the Health Security Agency has issued on the potential impact of 6G masts on health.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) provides advice on any potential health risks and protection from exposure to the radio waves from telecommunications systems, including those planned to provide 6G services. Further information is available at the following link:

The frequencies anticipated to be used by 6G systems will be well within the scope of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection guidelines.
The UKHSA continues to review the developments applicable to radio technologies, including 6G, and will update its advice as necessary.
