Asked by:
Judith Cummins (Labour)

We believe that local authorities are best placed to deliver communications on their local Clean Air Zones (CAZ). To support the local authorities with the communication of their local air quality plans, in this financial year, we have allocated £1.5m for their regional marketing campaigns.

We commissioned evaluations of the communications campaigns which showed that they were effective in raising and supporting awareness of the CAZ, driving people to the vehicle checker which provides further details of the individual CAZs.
