Labour and Co-operative Member of
Parliament for Kemptown and Peacehaven
Parliamentary question: Road Transport Emissions
Lloyd Russell-Moyle MP
"What progress is being made on setting up low-emission zones in various parts of the country? How are the Government ensuring that there is a workable national framework for those zones?"
Jesse Norman MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Transport
"As the hon. Gentleman knows, we have published the clean air plan and we are working very closely with local authorities regarding clean air zones. There is also a wider duty on local authorities that are not specifically part of the zones themselves to bear air quality in mind, and we also support them through the Department."
