dation 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

at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search “mobile”), or you

can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 0RQ,

United Kingdom. Copies of UK’s annual reports on

mobile phones and RF are available online at http://
