answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/01/2016 answer text <p>We assess emissions in terms of nitrogen oxides (NO<sub>x</sub>) rather than nitrogen dioxide (NO<sub>2</sub>) because the proportion of NO<sub>2</sub> varies significantly across vehicle types. Passenger cars (including both petrol and diesel vehicles) contribute 29% of the total emissions of NO<sub>x</sub> in the UK. Passenger cars contribute 45% of NO<sub>X</sub> emissions from road transport.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 18/01/2016 14:40:06 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
