Regulation and Legislation
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has launched new investigations into 3 fashion brands - ASOS, Boohoo and Asda - over ‘green’ claims.
New research undertaken by Ofwat shows that almost six in ten (59%) customers want their water company to prioritise improving the quality and cleanliness of rivers in England and Wales - even if this were to increase the price of their water bills.
The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has issued a Direction to Natural England on measures to address nutrient pollution via strategic mitigation schemes which has been implemented with immediate effect.
Ofwat is today releasing new figures that shed light on the water industry's performance on reducing leakage.
Ofwat has set out new proposals to improve financial resilience in the sector which would give the regulator extra powers to stop water companies making dividend payments if the company's financial resilience is at risk.![]()
