Public Health England provides the Scientific Secretariat for the Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants, an advisory committee of independent experts that provides advice to Government departments and agencies on how air pollution impacts on health. No assessment of the impact of PM1 and PM0.1 components of particulate air pollution has been produced.<\/p>

The study found that emissions of particulate matter (PM10<\/sub>) from MWIs are low and make only a small contribution to ambient background levels. The report is available at the following link:<\/p> http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.est.6b06478<\/a><\/p> No evidence was found of a link between exposure to PM10<\/sub>, which includes PM2.5<\/sub>, PM1<\/sub> and PM0.1<\/sub> emitted from MWIs and infant mortality, or the other birth outcomes investigated. Further information is available at the following link:<\/p> https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envint.2018.10.060<\/a><\/p> The latest paper found no increased risk of congenital anomalies from exposure to PM10<\/sub> emissions, however living closer to the incinerators was associated with a very small increase in risk of some birth defects. As acknowledged by the authors, this finding may be because the study could not fully adjust for factors such as other sources of pollution around MWIs or deprivation. The report is available at the following link:<\/p> https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160412019308104<\/a><\/p> PHE\u2019s position remains that well run and regulated modern MWIs are not a significant risk to public health. PHE will review its advice in light of new substantial research on the health effects of incinerators published in peer reviewed journals. To date, PHE is not aware of any evidence that requires a change in their position statement.
