Regulation and Legislation
Ofwat is proposing to modify Castle Water’s existing Water Supply Licence and Sewerage Licence (WSSL) to enable the retailer to introduce water into the public network in England as part of the Didcot pilot project.
In an Expert Focus article for WaterBriefing, Alastair Chisholm, Policy Director at the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM) takes a look at why Ofwat’s draft determination drowns out early policy signals from Labour Government on water.
Ofwat has today announced that it is opening enforcement cases into four more water and wastewater companies as part of its ongoing investigation into how companies manage their wastewater treatment works and networks.
In what is thought to be the worst offence of its kind in Devon and Cornwall, Christopher Garrett has been jailed for 32 months after he dumped thousands of tonnes of waste, including asbestos, on land by his home, in a floodplain near Kingsteignton in Devon.
Sir Keir Starmer has called for ‘personal responsibility from the top” at water companies following the publication yesterday of Ofwat’s draft determinations for the AMP8 business plans for 2025-30.
- PR24 - draft determinations make up to £1.21 bn available to fund development expenditure costs for RAPID programme in AMP8
- Environment Minister says “today’s water bill rises are the result of years of failure”
- Ofwat – draft AMP8 business plans decisions allows £88bn investment - a £16bn cut from water company plans
- Minister to set out Government’s plans to overhaul water sector in England and Wales
