The Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants (COMEAP)

COMEAP is an Advisory Committee of independent experts that provides advice to government departments and agencies, via the Department of Health's Chief Medical Officer, on all matters concerning the effects of air pollutants on health.

The website provides access to Documents provided by the Committee in the form of  statements, reports, meeting papers and minutes. Find out more about the Membership of COMEAP and the work that we do.

There are a number of pages dedicated to non-air pollution scientists. The Introduction to Air Pollution pages enable non-specialists and the public to understand and engage in the sometimes complex issues and advice provided on the effects of air pollution on our health.
