I have regular meetings with Department for Transport (DfT) Parliamentary Under Secretary, Trudy Harrison, as part of our collective oversight of the Joint Air Quality Unit (JAQU).

JAQU was established in 2016 as a joint Defra/ DfT unit to deliver compliance with roadside nitrogen dioxide concentration limit values via the UK NO2 Plan.
