question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment he has made of the level of pollution produced by equipment and vehicles operating on building sites in town and city centres; for what reasons such machinery is not subject to low emission controls; and if he will make a statement.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2017 answer text <p>We have not undertaken a specific assessment of the level of pollution produced by equipment and vehicles operating on building sites in town and city centres. Our annual emission statistics set out pollution by source, including from manufacturing industries and construction. The latest statistics to 2015 are available at: <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/emissions-of-air-pollutants" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/statistics/emissions-of-air-pollutants</a>.</p><p> </p><p>Machinery used on building sites is likely to be classed as non-road mobile machinery (NRMM). The UK Government has been actively involved in developing new legislation for NRMM at a European level. In January this year, new legislation came into force with more stringent emission limits for major air pollutants from engines used in NRMM. This extends the scope of existing legislation to cover all sizes of petrol and diesel engines used in NRMM and improves the legal framework. The new emission standards are mandatory for new engines being sold, for the first tranche of categories, from January 2019.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Suffolk Coastal answering member printed Dr Thérèse Coffey question first answered 19/07/2017 09:51:31 answering member 4098 label Biography information for Dr Thérèse Coffey

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will support adoption of UN sanctions against those who impede implementation of the 31 December agreement on the Democratic Republic of Congo and who commit human rights violations in (a) that country and (b) the Kasai region of that country.

uin	4586
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2017 answer text <p>The political and human rights situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is deeply concerning. The UK has supported the adoption of EU sanctions against individuals responsible for obstructing the democratic process in the DRC and who have committed human rights violations in the Kasai region and elsewhere. Should there continue to be no progress towards full implementation of the 31 December agreement and a continuation of the human rights violations taking place across that country, including in the Kasais, the UK would support further pressure on those responsible. While action by the UN Security Council is one option, we would also consider further EU sanctions, if required.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 19/07/2017 09:41:14 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2017 answer text <p>There has been no assessment made of the effect of fast food advertising on levels of obesity among children and young people.</p><p> </p><p>In October 2015, Public Health England published its review ‘Sugar reduction: The evidence for action: A mixed method review of behaviour changes resulting from marketing strategies targeted at high sugar food and non-alcoholic drinks’. This review found that all forms of advertising are effective in influencing the preference and purchase of high sugar foods and non-alcoholic drinks and increasing their consumption. New forms of advertising including, advergames, discounting, use of character branding, product size and supermarket product placement, can influence high sugar product selection or consumption. It would be difficult to assess the impact of one strategy in isolation as individuals are exposed to a whole variety of marketing strategies across various different mediums.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 19/07/2017 13:37:28 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
