EM Radiation Research Trust Letter sent on 4th August 2024

From: Eileen O’Connor, Director EM Radiation Research Trust Charity

For the attention of Cllr David King, Colchester Council cllr.david.king@colchester.gov.uk

Cc. Brian Stein CBE Chairman EM Radiation Research Trust

Dear Cllr David King,

I am writing on behalf of the EM Radiation Research Trust after watching a recent video from Colchester Council Watch featuring a presentation from concerned citizens in connection with 5G.  Colchester Council appear to accept the ICNIRP guidelines as a certificate of safety for 24/7 long term exposure for the entire population and the ecosystem without question.

I am the co-founder and Charity Director for the EM Radiation Research Trust from 2003 to date: www.radiationresearch.org , Co-founder and Board member for the International EMF Alliance 2009 to date: www.iemfa.org . I was previously a member of the European Commission Stakeholder Dialogue Group on EMF from 2011 – 2014 and a member of the UK Health Protection Agency Radiation Protection Division EMF Discussion Group from 2006- 2008 Chaired by the previous health Protection Agency Chairman Sir William Stewart. I was a co-founder for (SCRAM) Seriously Concerned Residents against masts 2002 – 2005.

Is ICNIRP responsible? Paolo Vecchia, Chairman for ICNIRP presented at the Radiation Research Trust conference at the Royal Society, London in September, 2008.

The government’s misuse of ICNIRP is the primary issue. Slide number 16: https://www.radiationresearch.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/021145_vecchia.pdf

The ICNIRP guidelines are irrelevant with regards to protecting public health from biological effects and long-term exposure. It is common knowledge, and supported by peer reviewed evidence that this form of radiation and the ICNIRP guidelines raise health & safety concerns, as follows:
