Deep Dive CR21: Air Quality

Report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection.

Minutes:

Members received a Deep Dive report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection (M&CP) relative to CR21 Air Quality. It was noted that emission sources include road traffic and non-traffic sources such as boilers and generators. Fine particles found in air come from both City sources and blown from other parts of London. M&CP reported it was working with the Department for the Built Environment to manage idling and encourage use of electric vehicles in the City. In addition to the work undertaken within the City, an emissions reduction bill had gone through a first reading in Parliament and would be considered in a second reading in due course.

 

RESOLVED, that – the report be received and its contents noted.
