Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 October 2024

Debate

Water (Special Measures) Bill [HL]

Contribution

I press the Minister to make a commitment this evening to implement Schedule 3 to the Flood and Water Management Act without delay and perhaps set out a timetable. This legislation is the right place to do so, because it relates entirely to the environmental standards that the Bill sets out. It is one of the key environmental standards set out in new Section 35B, so I make a plea to the Minister to use her good offices to implement it as part of the Bill. I beg to move.
