Jo was invited to speak at
the IAQM meeting on Action Planning last Wednesday (18th April) and presented
her research on: "Barriers to developing and implementing local
Air Quality Action Plans". She was joined by Simon Baldwin (Welsh
Government), Steve Moorcroft (Air Quality Consultants Ltd), and Robert Vaughan
and Emily Connolly (Defra). The presentations were well-received and prompted a
very intense and interesting debate around the future of Air Quality Action
Planning in the UK. The presentations will be uploaded to the IAQM website
shortly - http://www.iaqm.co.uk/. Thanks
to Bernard Fisher and Clare Beattie for organizing and Roger Barrowcliffe for
chairing.
