To ask the Scottish Government whether it will provide an update on the progress of its Cleaner Air for Scotland 2 strategy.

The Scottish Government will today publish the third annual progress report for the Cleaner Air for Scotland 2 strategy.

Since publication of the strategy in July 2021, we have worked closely with stakeholders to deliver more than half of the actions, with seventeen completed since the last progress report. Work to take forward the remaining actions is continuing.

These actions, such as the introduction of Low Emission Zones in our four largest cities, have helped Scotland to meet all air quality objectives for the second consecutive year.
