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

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if she will publish best practice initiatives to reduce air pollution around (a) schools, (b) health care centres and (c) residential areas.

The Air Quality Strategy, published on 28 April 2023, is our strategic delivery framework for local authorities and other partners. A range of best practice initiatives to reduce air pollution are highlighted.

To further facilitate the sharing of information and lessons learned between local authorities, Defra has also funded the AQ Hub, where air quality professionals can upload case studies and connect on specific issues of relevance.
