New Clause 6 - Reporting of impact of the Act on pollution

Part of Water (Special Measures) Bill [Lords] – in a Public Bill Committee at 2:15 pm on 14 January 2025.

Alert me about debates like this

“The Secretary of State must publish—

(a) within three months of the passing of this Act, an assessment of the expected impact of the Act on the overall level of pollution caused by the activities of relevant undertakers; and

(b) three years after the passing of this Act, an assessment of the actual impact of the Act on the overall level of pollution caused by the activities of sewerage undertakers.”—

This new clause would require the Government to publish its expectations as to the impact of the Act on pollution caused by water and sewerage undertakers and an assessment of the actual impact of the Act on such pollution.
