PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(17 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many children under the age of 18 in (a) Basingstoke constituency, (b) Hampshire and (c) England were diagnosed with respiratory conditions associated with poor (i) air quality and (ii) housing conditions in each of the last ten years.

Asked by:
Luke Murphy (Labour)

Answer

The Department does not hold information on diagnosed respiratory conditions caused by air quality and housing conditions.

The Government is committed to a preventative approach to the public’s health, and is determined to improve air quality for everyone. That is why we are working across Government to tackle these issues. This includes supporting the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs to deliver their comprehensive and ambitious Clean Air Strategy, and an initial £3.4 billion towards heat decarbonisation and household energy efficiency over the next three years, to improve housing conditions.
