answer text <p>Air pollution is an important challenge and Government is involved in a wide range of actions tackling it. Local Authorities are often best placed to run such campaigns, as they are able to focus on areas where idling is a particular problem. Vehicle manufacturers are increasingly offering automatic stop-start systems which help save fuel and CO<sub>2</sub> emissions.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs attended the Clean Air Summit on 14 February with the Mayor of London, Metro Mayors and city leaders from across the country. A range of issues were discussed at the Summit including the ambitious goals set out in our new Clean Air Strategy, the need to focus on reducing emissions from a variety of sources, and support for local authorities with powers and funding.</p><p> </p><p>My officials have regular and ongoing engagement with those local authorities named in the 2017 Plan for Tackling Roadside Nitrogen Dioxide Concentrations, to support them in considering measures to address nitrogen dioxide exceedances in their areas. Due to the highly localised nature of the problem, local knowledge is crucial in solving pollution problems in these hotspots. Local authorities are considering a range of measures to tackle their nitrogen dioxide exceedances, including, where appropriate, charging Clean Air Zones.</p><p> </p><p>I met the Mayor for the West Midlands, Andy Street, earlier this month and discussed the progress of local authorities in the West Midlands who are developing local air quality plans.
