Debate
Water (Special Measures) Bill [HL]Contribution
The noble Earl, Lord Russell, asked for examples of Ofwat requiring companies to fund pollution programmes. A current example is PR24, the programme going through at the moment; it will require billions to improve water company assets, which will reduce pollution incidents. An example of that is the funding of 2,500 storm overflow upgrades.
