Okay. So, who wants to give us a view on local air quality management as is, and to what extent will it be improved? Steve, do you want to go first?

Bil yr Amgylchedd (Ansawdd Aer a Seinweddau) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Yes, okay. Thank you very much. I think, actually, that Janet wants to take us, now, into local air quality management. Sorry, Jenny just wants to come in on something first.

There is a point about action on the ground and driving change, isn't there? I think there's a point there about how we hold people to account that change is actually happening as a consequence of this Bill, and we're not just measuring more and assessing…

4 Mai 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil yr Amgylchedd (Ansawdd Aer a Seinweddau) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Okay, thank you. Right, we're going to move on now, then, to the national air quality strategy, and I think, Delyth, you're going to lead us on this.

So, do you not feel—[Interruption.] Sorry. Do you not feel that there's a tension there between the need to get on and grapple with this issue and, obviously, doing it in a responsible way?
4 Mai 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil yr Amgylchedd (Ansawdd Aer a Seinweddau) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Yes, it probably is. Yes.

Bil yr Amgylchedd (Ansawdd Aer a Seinweddau) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Well—. Sorry. Well, can I just ask, then, there's a requirement for a target to be set for PM2.5 within three years. Is that a reasonable and appropriate timescale, do you think? Or is it more than—? Is it too long? Tom.
4 Mai 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil yr Amgylchedd (Ansawdd Aer a Seinweddau) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Yes, yes. That's fine. Okay. Lovely. Thank you for that. I'll bring Janet in at this point.
