The Environmental Protection Agency is currently undertaking a preliminary assessment of national air quality. This is nearing completion and is scheduled for publication early next year. The agency publishes an annual air quality monitoring report and recently published a report entitled Emissions To Air 1990-1998: Estimation Methods, Trends & Challenges. Copies of these reports are available in the Oireachtas Library.
