UK sets conditions for Huawei

China鈥檚 Huawei has clear conditions to meet for Britain to continue to allow its involvement in the development of 5G telecoms infrastructure, Britain鈥檚 health minister said yesterday, after a report that the firm would be banned from the project.

Officials are drawing up proposals to stop installing Huawei Technologies equipment in as little as six months, the Sunday Telegraph reported, in a reversal of a decision earlier this year.

Asked about the report, health minister Matt Hancock declined to comment specifically but said the initial recommendation had always been conditional.

鈥淚 wouldn鈥檛 comment on leaks of that kind. What I can say is that when we came out with an interim report on this earlier in the year, there are a number of conditions that needed to be met,鈥 he said.

鈥淚鈥檓 sure that the National Security Council will look at those conditions, and make the right decision on this.鈥
