The Chartered Institute of Environmental Health have issued a Policy Briefing Note on electromagnetic fields (link no longer working 2019).
It recognises that whilst high-quality international research “has not shown that everyday exposure to electric and magnetic fields generated by the transmission of electricity and by mobile telephone base stations is a cause of human disease,” and “there remains no necessity except on security grounds for restricting the public use of land other than immediately around power and mobile telecommunications installations”, nonethelss, public concern remains and should be allayed by sensible measures where possible. (Most of the measures suggested seem to relate more to telecommunications EMFs than to power systems).
