5G
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of whether the 2021 consultation on telecommunications infrastructure remains a sufficient basis for regulatory decisions intended to support nationwide 5G standalone coverage by 2030.
- Answer
-
Government’s decisions on 5G policy are informed by a wide range of evidence and information, including that gathered by the 2021 consultation. This includes for example, debates during passage of the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022, our ongoing engagement with stakeholders, and our discussions with other government departments and Ofcom.
The government is monitoring the work of all mobile network operators to ensure that each of them meets our standalone 5G ambition. We are committed to ensuring we have the right policy and regulatory framework in place to support investment and competition in the market.
