Select Committee on Science and Technology Appendices to the Minutes of Evidence


APPENDIX 16

Letter to the Clerk of the Committee from Mr Peter Methuen, Director, Latitude 52 Ltd

  I understand there is currently a committee sitting studying the microwaves from mobile telephones. May I please make the following contribution which, I hasten to add, is not scientific and merely anecdotal.

  Some years ago I purchased a microshield case for my mobile telephone. Amazingly, the headaches I had been experiencing ceased. Of course, the headaches could have been caused by something else but I am pleasantly surprised that I no longer experience headaches.

  If this is the result of using a microshield, then indeed it is money well spent. As a result, I recommend to everybody that they should consider using a shielded case on their mobile telephones.
