Regulation and Legislation
The water industry regulator has modified the licences of the 17 water companies to include the objectives of the Board leadership, transparency and governance principles.
Ofwat is looking to appoint a new Director for Change & Engagement as part of its ongoing internal transformational change programme.
Environment Agency Chief Sir James Bevan is warning that unless we tackle the impacts of climate change, "they will have profound and potentially terminal consequences for everything that matters to us", in the newly published EA's Annual Report and Accounts for 2018-2019.
In a policy update setting out progess on the Government's landmark Environment Bill, Environment Secretary Michael Gove has said that priorities include securing long-term, resilient water and wastewater services and protecting customers from potentially unaffordable bills.
The water industry regulator has launched a consultation on new guidance for companies’ ring-fencing obligations - as an example, in the future, Ofwat said it is "very unlikely that it would give consent for water companies to make a loan to their parent company."
