Following consultations in January after Christmas, the Labour Party is pushing for stronger measures to curb emissions from solid fuel burning, a significant contributor to air pollution. Key proposals include the introduction of stricter smoke emission limits for wood-burning appliances, mandatory labelling for both appliances and fuels, and new health warnings to better inform users of potential risks.
