The government has passed a law making it illegal for telecom network operators to retain Huawei switchgear in their networks where the government says it should be stripped out.
The Telecommunications (Security) Act imposes new legal duties on telecoms firms to protect the UK’s telecoms networks and gives new powers to government to control the use of high risk vendors such as Huawei.
Fines up to ten per cent of turnover or £100,000 a day for failing to meet standards.
