(23) The average exposure of the population to the pollutants with the highest documented impact on human health, fine particulate matter (PM2,5) and nitrogen dioxide, should be reduced based on the most up-to-date WHO recommendations. To that end, an average exposure reduction obligation should be introduced as a complementary air quality standard in addition to, but not as a substitute for, limit values.
