“The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas”
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of
the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney
of a building, from a furnace or from any fi xed boiler if located in a designated smoke
control area. It is also an offence to acquire an “unauthorised fuel” for use within a
smoke control area unless it is used in an “exempt” appliance (“exempted” from the
controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).
In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Secretary of State
in accordance with changes made to sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by
section 15 of the Deregulation Act 2015. Similarly in Scotland appliances are exempted
by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under section 50 of the Regulatory Reform
(Scotland) Act 2014. In Wales and Northern Ireland these are authorised by regulations
made by Welsh Ministers and by the Department of the Environment respectively.
