Some sites report exceedances of the limit value in multiple years.</p><p> </p><p>Our modelling indicates that only 8 percent of road kilometres will be in exceedance of the average annual concentration limits next year. Average measurements of nitrogen dioxide at roadside locations outside London have fallen by 16 to 18 percent since 2010.</p><p> </p><p>Defra’s national network of air quality monitors includes 279 sites across the UK. These are organised into networks that gather information for a wide range of pollutants on the state of the air in towns and cities as well as in rural areas. Some monitoring sites are also focused on measuring specific sources – e.g. road traffic or industry. All monitoring data is available on the UK Air website and is used to report levels of pollutants that impact on human health and ecosystems.</p> answering member constituency Suffolk Coastal answering member printed Dr Thérèse Coffey question first answered 31/10/2017 16:02:35 answering member 4098 label Biography information for Dr Thérèse Coffey

The investigation that he commissioned reviewed all of the relevant documents and evidence. The then Attorney General’s conclusion at the end of that process was that a fresh inquest or inquiry into the death was not warranted. A written statement setting out the detailed reasons for the Attorney’s decision was placed in the House of Commons library in June 2011. That statement was accompanied by a good deal of additional material, including the independent reports that were commissioned.</p><p> </p><p>I am not persuaded there is any reason to re-visit the matter.</p> answering member constituency Kenilworth and Southam answering member printed Jeremy Wright question first answered 31/10/2017 15:17:21 answering member 1560 label Biography information for Sir Jeremy Wright
