The Royal College of Physicians (RCP) has written to Baroness Jones of Moulsecoomb ahead of the second reading of her Clean Air (Human Rights) Bill to provide a summary of RCP research on air quality.
The RCP has responded to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs’ consultation on environmental targets calling for more ambition to reduce levels of fine particulate matter known as PM2.5.
The National Mortality Case Record Review (NMCRR) toolkit has been developed to support trusts in implementing a standardised way of reviewing the case records of adults who have died in acute hospitals across England and Scotland.
The RCP calls on the government to ensure that the final air quality plan includes a clear mandate requiring more UK cities to implement clean air zones.
