Liechtenstein and Switzerland are to reduce exposure guidelines

Liechtenstein has confirmed its intention to adopt the BioInitiative standard of 0.6 volts per metre public exposure to RF radiation. This is to be achieved by 2013, despite opposition from the telecommunications companies who say they cannot provide a viable network to conform to this standard. They have threatened to leave Liechtenstein. The country is looking at providing its own alternatives and sticking with the reduction.

The Swiss parliament are proposing to adopt the even lower guideline of 0.3 volts per metre.

This should help protect some of the more vulnerable members of the population who begin to develop health effects at levels of 0.05 volts per metre.
