Hi Everyone - I am happy to declare, as I always have done in
previous posts, that I do have a commercial interest in emf protection products, my website www.magnatech.ik.com links to my shop where ESens members can get a discount. But my main and only reson for getting involved with these products was because they helped my with my symptoms and many thousands of others. Each product sold generates a donation to the Radiation Research Trust this is why the text below is addressed to Ecoflow distributors - that is my parent company. I hope, despite the advertising, it is of interest to members of the group. All the best to each and everyone of you Ian BEGINS June 16th EU Meeting with EM Radiation Research Trust Representatives - Up-Date from Chairman Michael Bell Following an initial meeting in May (reported in the June edition of Newsflow) EM RRT Trustee Eileen O'Connor accompanied by leading scientist Dr Gerd Oberfeld met again with EU Director General for Health and Consumer Protection, John Ryan on 16th June to discuss the possibility of EU sponsored research on the subject of electro- hypersensitivity. It was felt that the EM RRT would need to create research opportunities by applying for funding. John Ryan has a budget to cover conferences and information distribution. The Trust proposed an alternative to the NRPB, WHO and ICNIRP and instead would like to appoint a European team of experts either through the Radiation Research Trust or via setting up a new charity. As all Ecoflow distributors already know there is a desperate need to educate the public and public health care system on how to prevent disease caused by EMFs. This, the Trust feels, could be done through information leaflets or an advertising campaign. John Ryan could help to fund this through his information distribution budget. The Trust would also like to see health warnings on mobile phones. A proposal for a European Conference in January 2006 on the issue of educating decision makers and public health officials throughout Europe was also discussed. John Ryan was interested in Dr Oberfeld's research idea to study the environment and health indicators especially cancer clusters around phone masts. Dr Oberfeld said a cancer cluster study would cost around 30,000 euros and using the best knowledge and team available it could be done over a short time period. The EM RRT suggested that a British team should be put together working to a protocol provided by Dr Oberfeld. Trust Chairman Mike Bell and Eileen O'Connor are due to meet Sir William Stewart on July 13th to discuss ways of moving forward from the Stewart Report 2005. The Trust is also due to participate in the open Forum meeting at Parliament House, Westminster on July 19th. Andrew Mitchell MP has arranged a meeting with David Davis on July 29th in Westminster. Mike O'Brien QC MP, the Solicitor General is trying to secure a meeting with Tony Blair. Thanks to Andrew Mitchell, Dr Ian Gibson and Phil Willis for sending letters to Director General, John Ryan offering support for the EM Radiation Research Trust. As ever the Trust extends sincerest thanks to Ecoflow Plc and all its independent distributors who continue to support the work of the Trust with donations from the sales of Bioguard and Biophone.
