That seems about right to me. The composition of the meetings will no doubt vary over time and place, and the amendment therefore avoids being unhelpfully prescriptive. Had civil society been able to hold water companies and the regulators properly to account earlier, the current scandals in the water industry would have been highlighted earlier and likely averted before they got to the filthy state they are now in. Leaving with the water companies the power to report in glowing terms their occasional relationship with environmental organisations, rather than engage in formal accountability that is so urgently needed, is to leave the status quo in place and repeat the problems of the past.
