Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans he has to update the Public Health Outcomes Framework indicator, D01 - Fraction of mortality attributable to particulate air pollution from 2019 to 2020 to take into account the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' population-weighted annual mean PM2.5 data for 2020.

The Public Health Outcomes Framework indicator (PHOF) - D01 is updated annually by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA). The UKHSA and the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities will be updating and publishing the PHOF-D01 for 2020 values in 2022, which will be based on the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' Automatic Urban and Rural Network data.
