Odour Pollution: Wiltshire
Asked by: Sarah Gibson (Liberal Democrat - Chippenham) Thursday 26th March 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what recent assessment his Department has made of the cause of the persistent odour affecting residents in Calne, Wiltshire; and what steps her Department is taking to ensure that the Environment Agency and local authorities have the resources and enforcement powers required to identify and address the source of the smell. Answered by Emma Hardy - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) The Environment Agency is aware of persistent odour reports in Calne and continues to treat the issue as a priority. Officers from the Environment Agency’s Wessex Area team have been deployed daily since last Thursday to investigate the source and assess any environmental impacts. They are conducting odour assessments at the times residents report the smell to be strongest, mainly late at night and early morning. These assessments are helping to establish the odour’s intensity and origin and will inform any necessary regulatory action.
Defra engages closely with the Environment Agency and other agencies to review resources and enforcement powers. |

17 Apr 2026
HM Treasury and the economics of climate and nature Environmental Audit Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 21 May 2026) The Environmental Audit Committee is examining the role of HM Treasury in shaping the UK’s response to climate change, nature loss and wider environmental sustainability. The Government’s economic policy objective includes a commitment to “accelerate the transition to a climate resilient, nature positive and net zero economy”.[1] This inquiry will explore how HM Treasury influences the Government’s approach to climate change, nature loss and environmental sustainability through economic policy, appraisal frameworks and funding decisions. It will also assess the extent to which these objectives are reflected in practice, including whether climate, nature and environmental sustainability are recognised as contributors to long term growth and resilience. In addition, the inquiry will consider how effectively climate and environment related risks and opportunities are assessed within economic and fiscal decisions, and what impact HM Treasury has in addressing them. [1] Remit for the Monetary Policy Committee Read the call for evidence for more information about this inquiry, and to find out how to submit written evidence through the Committee's online evidence submission portal. |
