Proceeding contribution from Baroness McIntosh of Pickering (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 9 June 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Water Companies.
Water Companies
My Lords, I thank the Minister for the work that she and the department are doing in clearing up the rivers, watercourses and seas, though privatisation and EU regulations have played their part. She will be aware that the Cunliffe review referred to pollution and flooding being addressed up stream and to greater use of sustainable drains. Can she resolve her disagreement with her fellow Ministers in the Ministry of Housing to make sure that we can implement Schedule 3 to the Flood and Water Management Act 2010?
