Scientists fear that children may be more vulnerable as the exposure dose received by a child's brain is higher than that received by an adult's brain, and also because their nervous system is still developing.

Bruce Armstrong, the professor of public health at the University of Sydney, welcomed the French authorities’ recommendations.

"We don't know that use of mobile phones causes harm to children but we don't know with certainty that it is safe in all circumstances," he said.

A spokesman for federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon said: "We have no plans to restrict usage at this point. Of course we monitor any developments in medical research as a matter of course."
