This guidance is issued by the Scottish Ministers to help local authorities with their local air quality management duties under Part IV of the Environment Act 1995.

The fourth round of local authority review and assessment commences in April 2009. This policy guidance and the accompanying technical guidance (TG (09)) are the primary guidance documents to which local authorities should have regard when carrying out this work. The guidance replaces the LAQM policy guidance and the progress report guidance published in 2003 and the guidance on further (or stage 4) assessment published in 2001.
