LONDON, July 14 (Reuters) - Britain's digital minister said
that Canada had a similar type of analysis to that done by the
United Kingdom which on Tuesday said it would ban Huawei
equipment from the 5G network by 2027.
"The U.S. and Australia have already taken decisions in this
respect. I think the Canadians have a similar sort of analysis
to us and are yet to take a decision, and New Zealand has a
slightly different process," Digital Secretary Oliver Dowden
told parliament.
"Each country is looking at how best to protect its telecoms
networks but also crucially how they develop their own domestic
alternatives," he said.
