Who wants to pick up on this one? Air quality targets in regulations as opposed to on the face of the Bill. Joseph.

Welcome back to this meeting of the Climate Change, Environment and Infrastructure Committee. We continue with our work of Stage 1 scrutiny of the Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill, but we refer to it as 'the clean air Bill' as shorthand…
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
Excellent. Okay. Well, can I thank you both very much for your evidence this morning? We greatly appreciate your participation in our deliberations around the Bill. You will be sent a draft transcript to check for accuracy, and there may be one or two bits…
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
And that brings us back very much to where we started about the scope of the Bill and whether there are other elements that could be included. There we are. Do Members have any further questions? Yes, Huw.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
Okay? Yes. So, the other section of the Bill is around soundscapes. Now, I'm not sure whether you have any views on provisions relating to that particular aspect of the Bill.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
Okay, thank you. Jenny.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
Okay. Okay. I won't pursue that further because I know time is against us, and I know we need to get on to other areas, so, Joyce, maybe you'll take us on to one of those.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
Okay. I'm afraid that we are against time, so we really need to focus specifically on the Bill, but thank you for that, that's really useful. Smoke control is another area that, obviously, is a subject in the Bill, and I was just wondering whether you think…
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
The Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill - evidence session 1
Yes, that's an important point, thank you. Jenny.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee

Okay. Jenny.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
