answer text <p>The Government is not currently considering a national scrappage scheme in light of concerns over deliverability and value for money. However we have not restricted the types of measures eligible local authorities could bid for funding for from the Clean Air Fund which supports local authorities with nitrogen dioxide exceedances. The Government will continue to assess bids that relate to scrappage and where these are approved support the local authorities in delivery of these schemes.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government has invested over £84 million in retrofitting vehicles with pollution reducing technology since 2013, most of which have been buses for public transport. The continued development, promotion and implementation of innovative retrofit technology will be an important element of reducing emissions of nitrogen oxides and will help bridge the gap in the journey towards zero emissions by 2050.</p><p> </p><p>In February, the Government awarded £1 million of grants to three technology providers to support the accreditation testing of vehicle retrofit technologies, looking particularly to support bringing retrofit solutions for different vehicle types onto the market. These will mainly focus on HGVs and coaches. At the moment there is no practical retrofit solution for passenger cars and with their lower value and limited physical space, finding a cost effective solution will prove a challenge.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs attended the Clean Air Summit on 14 February with the Mayor of London, Metro Mayors and city leaders from across the country. A range of issues were discussed at the Summit including the ambitious goals set out in our new Clean Air Strategy, the need to focus on reducing emissions from a variety of sources, and support for local authorities with powers and funding.</p><p> </p><p>My officials have regular and ongoing engagement with those local authorities named in the 2017 Plan for Tackling Roadside Nitrogen Dioxide Concentrations, to support them in considering measures to address nitrogen dioxide exceedances in their areas. Due to the highly localised nature of the problem, local knowledge is crucial in solving pollution problems in these hotspots. Local authorities are considering a range of measures to tackle their nitrogen dioxide exceedances, including, where appropriate, charging Clean Air Zones.</p><p> </p><p>I met the Mayor for the West Midlands, Andy Street, earlier this month and discussed the progress of local authorities in the West Midlands who are developing local air quality plans. I have also spoken with the Mayor of Bristol, Marvin Rees, this month about the development of Bristol’s local air quality plan.</p><p> </p>
