Martin Wrigley

Liberal Democrat — Newton Abbot

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 May 2025

Debate

Local Housing Need Assessment Reform

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for securing this valuable debate. Does he agree that, as well as causing the issues he described, incremental building contributes to problems with the sewerage systems? If a developer builds 50 houses here, 50 houses there and 50 houses elsewhere, and each one is considered on its own merit, it does not warrant an upgrade to the sewerage systems, so the water companies do not upgrade, systems become overloaded and we start getting sewage in the water.
