Regulation and Legislation
The Good Law Project has announced that it has been granted a hearing in the High Court in its legal challenge to force the Government to take much tougher action to stop water companies from discharging raw sewage into coastal waters.
The Government has asked the National Infrastructure Commission to review the current approach to National Policy Statements (NPSs) and identify how the planning system could create greater certainty for infrastructure investors, developers and local communities.
Both the Chair and Chief Executive of the Office for Environmental Protection, together with Environment Minister Thérèse Coffey and Tamara Finkelstein Permanent Secretary at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs are due to give evidence to the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee (EAC) from 2.00pm onwards today.
MPs on the House of Commons Welsh Affairs Committee will hold an evidence session beginning 10.00 am this morning to examine sewage discharges in Wales as part of its current inquiry into water quality.
MOSL has published its 2023-26 Business Plan for member voting - the plan sets out MOSL’s expenditure for 2023-24 and the delivery of its core services and key programmes of work.
