Ateb
Atebwyd gan Deputy Minister for Climate Change
Telecommunications policy, including regulatory policy relating to the roll-out of 5G, is not a devolved matter. The roll out of 5G technology, infrastructure and services will be industry-led, predominantly by the Mobile Network Operators (MNOs). Full 5G coverage across the UK is not expected to be available until 2022/23 at the earliest. The roll out of 5G does not require public consent, although normal planning restrictions might apply for the erection of required infrastructure.
