The other areas don’t.
Equally you could say other cities took away investment from Newcastle because of their CAZs. (Leeds got our hybrid-electric geminis from the 308 a few years back).
I don't see how Newcastle's air pollution is a problem for places like South Tyneside, Sunderland or Durham though? The CAZ is about to be enacted, so there's no excuse for Newcastle to be taking investment away from other places now.
