	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2017 answer text <p>Our most recent assessment shows that domestic solid fuel burning contributed 40% (42 kilotonnes) of total PM<sub>2.5</sub> emissions in the UK during 2015, with domestic wood burning alone accounting for 35% (37 kilotonnes). This compares with 39 kilotonnes (solid fuels) and 33 kilotonnes (wood) in 2014 and 45 kilotonnes (solid fuels) and 40 kilotonnes (wood) in 2013.</p><p>Evidence shows that particulate matter (PM) of 2.5 microns in diameter (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) and smaller can have detrimental effects on health. Small particles from smoke which are formed when wood is burned can get into the lungs and blood and be transported around the body, where they have a variety of detrimental health effects. It is, however, difficult to assess the increase in risk to public health that is associated with domestic wood burning alone.</p> answering member constituency Suffolk Coastal answering member printed Dr Thérèse Coffey grouped question UIN 7481 question first answered 12/09/2017 12:56:49 answering member 4098 label Biography information for Dr Thérèse Coffey
