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

To ask His Majesty's Government what progress they have made in protecting environmental and human health from the effects of chemical pollution.

HM Government's 25 Year Environment Plan set out actions to significantly reduce the levels of harmful chemicals entering the environment. Progress made against these actions have been published through our 25 Year Environment Plan Progress Reports and Indicator Framework. We are currently reviewing the 25 Year Environment Plan as required by the Environment Act 2021. The revised Environmental Improvement Plan will be subject to the relevant parliamentary laying procedures as set out in the Act.
