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
fixed 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).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has powers under the Act to authorise
smokeless fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke control areas in England. In Scotland and Wales this
power rests with Ministers in the devolved administrations for those countries. Separate legislation, the
Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981, applies in Northern Ireland. Therefore it is a requirement that fuels
burnt or obtained for use in smoke control areas have been "authorised" in Regulations and that appliances
used to burn solid fuel in those areas (other than "authorised" fuels) have been exempted by an Order made
and signed by the Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations.
