The Environment Agency has launched a six month consultation on the statutory review of the draft River Basin Management Plans (RBMPs) and Flood Risk Management plans which set out how organisations, stakeholders and communities will work together to improve the water environment over the next six years.
Report says regulation in England helping protect against climate change - but more needs to be done
A high rate of regulatory performance in England is helping fight climate change impacts, but more must be done to secure a healthy environment, according to a new report released by the Environment Agency.
Future Water is calling for a wider range of duties to be part of the remit of water sector regulator Ofwat, supporting a more agile, future looking approach.
Jonson Cox’s appointment as Chair of the Water Services Regulation Authority (Ofwat) has been extended by six months and two other Board members have been reappointed as non-executive directors.
The Government’s draft Strategic Policy Statement (SPS) is a ‘missed opportunity’ to ensure that the water industry can make significant progress before the end of the decade in addressing the many long-term challenges it faces, such as responding to the climate crisis, a growing population and improving the health of our rivers, according to trade body Water UK.
