5G: Constituencies
(asked on 15th July 2020) - View Source
Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, if he will make an assessment of whether particular constituencies are high risk of network disruption a result of the decision to exclude Huawei from UK 5G networks.
This question was answered on 22nd July 2020
We do not anticipate any disruption.
On 14 July the Government announced that Huawei equipment will be removed from the UK’s 5G networks by the end of 2027 following the introduction of further US sanctions against Huawei in May 2020. The process by which mobile operators comply with the Government’s decision on Huawei is a matter for the operators themselves.
