answer text <p>We know that trees outside woodlands, including trees in urban areas, parks, and along roads and footpaths can provide many environmental benefits for people<del class="ministerial">, including improved air quality</del>.</p><p><ins class="ministerial">There is strong evidence that healthy, well-chosen and well placed urban trees can provide a large range of benefits valuable to the economy and to people. This includes a relatively small but beneficial impact on urban air quality. However, current evidence suggests that trees would not be enough to solve the air quality problems at a city scale. </ins></p><p>Through the Nature for Climate Fund we are boosting the numbers of trees near to where people live<ins class="ministerial">, investing millions of pounds in tree planting and in the skills to incorporate trees in the right places to generate maximum benefits.</ins> <del class="ministerial">including:</del></p><p><del class="ministerial">· up to £4.4 million available to local communities through the Local Authority Treescapes Fund to plant and establish new trees;</del></p><p><del class="ministerial">· providing almost £8 million of financial support to local authorities to increase their capacity and specialist skills to plant and manage trees, through the ground-breaking Woodland Creation Accelerator Fund;</del></p><p><del class="ministerial">· planting up to 150,000 large trees in towns and cities across England using the £6 million Urban Tree Challenge Fund;</del></p><p><del class="ministerial">· contributing to the £9 million Levelling Up Parks Fund, which will create over 100 new parks to increase access to green space in urban areas.</del></p><p>Additional funding is being provided to support tree growers and seed suppliers across England, to help meet the growing demand for trees. We have developed capital and innovation grants for the sector that will encourage the adoption of mechanisation and automation, and help enhance the quantity, quality, diversity and biosecurity of domestic tree production.</p><p>Alongside this, Defra has been working closely with the Ornamental Horticulture Roundtable Group who have published an action plan 'Unlocking green growth: A plan from the ornamental horticulture &amp; landscaping industry'. This sets out the industry's potential contributions to tackling some of the environmental challenges facing the UK, including through the use of a greater proportion of British-produced plants and trees in public sector projects, and the incorporation of more community green spaces within the urban planning process. Where Government can help, we will work with the sector to help it take advantage of the opportunities outlined in the action plan.</p>

The Prime Minister's Special Envoy for Freedom of Religion or Belief tweeted on the issue on 10 August and is discussing it with members of the International Religious Freedom or Belief Alliance. Our Permanent Observer at the Organisation of American States also referred to the issue in a statement at a special meeting on the situation in Nicaragua on 12 August. Lord (Tariq) Ahmad of Wimbledon highlighted our concern about the detention of Bishop Rolando Álvarez during his visit to the Holy See on 26 August and he is due to give a statement on behalf of the UK about the human rights situation in Nicaragua at the UN Human Rights Council's Interactive Dialogue with the High Commissioner on 13 September. We will continue to raise our concerns about the situation in Nicaragua, including the detention of members of the Catholic church, and urge the Nicaraguan Government to respect the human rights of all Nicaraguan people.</del></p>
