§ Mr. OatenTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what progress she has made on implementing the Stewart report recommendations on the beam of greatest intensity from mobile phone masts and schools on their grounds. [57095]
§ Mr. Ivan Lewis[holding answer 16 May 2002]We have agreed with the network operators that they will provide schools, on request, with information on the level of intensity of radio frequency radiation from a mast on 275W or near their premises. Schools and parents can then make an informed decision as to whether to give their agreement to that operation. We have informed local education authorities and schools of this.
