Regulation and Legislation
The Government has delayed the publication of environmental targets relating to the Environment Act 2021 which were due to be published today.
Anglian Water has been fined a total of £871,000 after a catalogue of system and maintenance failures caused separate incidents of pollution across 3 counties.
Former Ofwat Chief Executive Cathryn Ross has raised the question of whether the Price Review process - the regulatory framework of five-year price reviews for the water sector - is still fit for purpose.
The House of Lords Industry and Regulators Committee will continue its inquiry on the work of Ofwat, the UK’s water regulator, by taking evidence from Ofwat’s CEO David Black, and Chair Iain Coucher from 10.30am on Tuesday 25 October.
The Government, investors, water companies and environmental regulators – Ofwat in particular – all came in for remarkable levels of criticism from Conservative, Labour. Liberal Democrat and cross-bench peers in a House of Lords debate last week.
