The Health Protection Agency has arranged the calculation of the mortality
burden attributable to long-term exposure to particulate air pollution
(PM2.5) for English upper-tier local authorities. These estimates have
been published in the base line data set for the Public Health Outcomes
Framework, which can be found at:

www.phoutcomes.info

Indicators from all of the outcomes, frameworks, including the Public
Health Outcomes Framework, can be used by health and well-being boards to
inform Joint Strategic Needs Assessments (JSNAs) and Joint Health and
Well-being Strategies (JHWSs). JSNAs and JHWSs are local strategic
planning processes which will underpin local commissioning plans across
the local national health service and local authorities including public
health, social care and children's services. JSNAs must therefore be
inclusive of the health and care needs of the whole local population as an
objective, comprehensive and—most importantly—a locally-owned process of
developing evidence based priorities for commissioning.
