Conservative — Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 July 2025

Debate

Independent Water Commission

Contribution

Between 2018 and 2022, untreated sewage was released just over 58,000 times from Scottish sewer overflows, and more than half of wild swimming spots in Scotland contain unsafe levels of sewage, so whatever model the Government decide to adopt for the regulation of the water industry in England, will the Secretary of State assure me that they will not follow the Scottish Government’s failed model?
