02/ The brief

What the notice says

Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.

Local authorities (LAs) play a key role in managing air quality in their area and it is important they

have the right tools to support them in this. There are existing LAQM tools, guidance and policies

available but Defra would like to determine if additional support is needed, particularly on fine

particulate matter (PM2.5), the pollutant which is most harmful to human health. Under the

Environment Act 2021 two new legally binding long-term targets were set to reduce concentrations

of PM2.5. The Air Quality Strategy (AQS) adds new focus on PM2.5 and sets an expectation that all

LAs will take action and effectively use their powers to reduce these emissions from sources which

are within their control. This will support meeting local objectives and contribute to national targets.

Defra would like to determine if LAs would benefit from additional tools to support them in meeting

the AQS expectations, particularly in respect to the new PM2.5 targets. We would like to focus on

two areas. The first is in identifying air pollutant emissions in an LA's area and the sources of these

emissions and the second is to support the consideration of air quality when creating and reviewing

Local Plans
