Government tried to delay Air Pollution report
The Government have been ordered to release the Air Pollution Report they had to commission last year as a result of their continuous failure to keep the UK within EU air pollution limits: For which they were given a final warming back in February this year: http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-17-238_en.htm As the article regarding the release of this report shows the Government had no real reason for holding back on this public interest information – other than to avoid more bad publicity leading up to the General Election. The report will be released before the General Election but after the Local Elections though – I would argue that taking legal action to delay information which is vital to Public Health is clear evidence of misuse of executive power ! http://www.businessgreen.com/bg/news/3009135/high-court-orders-government-to-publish-draft-air-quality-plan-after-local-elections
