The deadline for Devon County Council’s call for evidence on 5G has been extended until New Year's Day.
As part of a spotlight review on 5G, which is being carried out by the County Council’s Corporate Infrastructure and Regulatory Services Scrutiny Committee, members of the public are being asked for their views on the technology.
Devon County Council has no current plans to make use of 5G in its ICT and is not involved with planning applications for mobile infrastructure, but it wants to hear from people to help inform the findings of its investigation.
Voters in East Devon are reminded to double check their poll cards to ensure that they visit the correct polling station at the General Election next Thursday (Dec 12).

The changes are:
Gateway polling station has moved to Seaton Marshlands;
Colyton Town Hall polling station has moved to Reece Strawbridge Centre
Offwell Village Hall polling station has moved to Offwell Sports and Social Club

It was also an opportunity to launch the new schemes. Devon County Council, in association with the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity the Woodland Trust, is offering...
