The city approved the most protective framework in Europe, boasts Mayor Hidalgo
Yesterday, 10 March, the City Council of Paris adopted a Mobile phone charter. The document was issued after a large citizen consultation was conducted in the autumn of last year.
According to the Mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo, her city is the first in France to introduce a regulation framework for the commercial deployment of 5G. So far, she also boasts on Facebook, this is the most protective regulation in Europe.
The framework, adopted at yesterdays’ session of the local parliament, will make the commercial launch of 5G in the capital possible in the next couple of weeks. It is based on the conclusions of a citizen conference on 5G, that took place last year and that at the end of February was agreed upon by the mobile operators.

“I have always ensured that the deployment of new technologies, essential in our daily lives, is carried out with respect for environmental, social and ethical values. I am happy that this charter is part of this vision of progress”, Hidalgo concluded in a Facebook post.
