<p>Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and health evidence reviews have been prepared by
scientific expert groups in the United Kingdom and around the world. The independent
Advisory Group on Non-ionising Radiation (AGNIR) published their report in the UK
in 2012 and the European Commission’s Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified
Health Risks (SCENIHR) published their report in 2015. The World Health Organization
is also currently preparing a review. The AGNIR report is available to view at following

target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/radiofrequency-electromagnetic-fields-health-effects</a></p><p>The
SCENIHR report is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://ec.europa.eu/health/sites/health/files/scientific_committees/docs/citizens_emf_en.pdf"
target="_blank">https://ec.europa.eu/health/sites/health/files/scientific_committees/docs/citizens_emf_en.pdf</a></p><p>Based
on the accumulated evidence and reviews, Public Health England (PHE) advises that
the guidelines of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) should be adopted and currently there is no strong evidence that EMF exposures
below the ICNIRP guideline levels cause adverse health effects.</p><p>PHE has committed
to keeping emerging evidence under review and to preparing another comprehensive review
when sufficient new evidence has accumulated.</p>
