<p>My Department works closely with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural
Affairs in developing the Government’s response to the shared challenges of improving
air quality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Government announced an intention
to end the sale of all new conventional cars and vans by 2040 as part of the ‘UK plan
for tackling roadside nitrogen dioxide concentrations’ (July 2017). My Department
engaged closely with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, the Department
for Transport and other relevant departments to draft and agree this Plan, including
at Ministerial level.</p><p> </p>
