<p>NHS England has been in regular dialogue with industry over the last 18 months
about the need to reduce the environmental damage caused by asthma inhalers. As a
result, an industry working group on this has been formed, chaired by the Industry
Pharmaceutical Aerosol Consortium (IPAC). IPAC has now accepted an invitation to join
the national Low Carbon Inhalers Working Group, chaired by the Sustainable Development
Unit, to represent industry. This working group has been asked to provide proposals
from industry on reducing the carbon impacts of inhalers to support the NHS Long Term
Plan target.</p>
