Northern Beaches Council will host an online community information session on 4G and 5G infrastructure and technologies on Tuesday 7 May.  

The information session will feature a scientific panel of Associate Professor Sarah Loughran from the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) and Professor Rodney Croft, Director of the National Health & Medical Research Council of Australia (NHMRC) Centre of Research Excellence into RF EMF health, and Chair of the International Commission on Non-onizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), from the University of Wollongong.

The free online session is aimed at providing comprehensive information about how 4G and 5G works, including the latest research and findings. 

This follows a Council resolution to facilitate a community forum with a panel of scientific experts to address community concerns in relation to 4G and 5G infrastructure at a meeting in May 2023.

Mayor Sue Heins encouraged interested people to register to attend. 

“This is a great opportunity for the community to hear from the experts about 4G and 5G technologies,” Mayor Heins said. 

“If you have any questions about how the technologies work or would like to hear the latest research, register to attend and be sure to submit any questions you’d like the experts to address during the session.”
