Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what recent discussions his Department has had with the Department for Health and Social Care on the legal limit for nitrogen oxide pollution.

In 2017 the Government published the UK plan for tackling roadside nitrogen dioxide, and its supplements in 2018, setting out how the UK would reduce exceedances of NO2. We have established a Ministerial Oversight Group to give Ministers from across Government direct oversight of the delivery of the plan. The group is attended by Ministerial representatives from DHSC, HMT, DfT and MHCLG.
