Planning and Infrastructure Bill Report Stage: New Clause 85

Rejected107 ayes · 314 noes

What the vote was about

This new clause aimed to increase accountability for water companies, particularly regarding pollution incidents. For Cornwall, with its many designated bathing beaches and reliance on clean coastal waters for tourism and fishing, stronger regulation of water company performance would be directly relevant to protecting the marine environment and public health. The clause proposed new duties on water firms.
