Regulation and Legislation
The Government has issued businesses that produce pesticides with new guidance informing them that they will need to take different actions to be able to supply new pesticides to the UK and EU markets in the event of a no deal Brexit.
The House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee has warned that there is a “nitrate time bomb in many of our groundwater sources.”
The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs and Health and Safety Executive has published new guidance from the UK Government to businesses that use chemicals on the actions they should take now to minimise any disruption in the event of a no-deal Brexit.
The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs has launched a new wide-ranging consultation on its proposals to modernise water regulation, improve long-term planning for water resources and drainage and strengthen powers for Ofwat.
Water regulator Ofwat has today published its revised board leadership, transparency, and governance Principles. First introduced in 2014, Ofwat launched a review of its Principles last year, following public concerns raised over corporate behaviours in the water sector.
