Air Pollution
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to help tackle air pollution.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
Air pollution is one of the greatest environmental harms to public health. Our 10-Year Health Plan (10YHP) for England sets out how the Government plans to improve the health of the nation, including a focus on prevention of ill health. The plan sets out cross-Government action to tackle air pollution. This includes a review of the Environmental Improvement Plan, which will set out measures to reduce emissions and everyone’s exposure to air pollution.
