- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what assessment he has made of the effects on the health of police officers from radiation emissions from Tetra handsets issued to police forces.

Since the roll out of Airwave radio began in 2001, the Government have made a considerable investment into research into the safety of the Tetra technology.
