Our response to the Independent Water Commission’s Call for Evidence
Summary of our recommendations
Restoring ecological health to our waterways, rebuilding tired infrastructure and restoring the public’s trust in the water sector will all require a fundamental reset of the system.
Investment has been constrained even as pressure has grown on ageing water and waste infrastructure. This has left the sector with its highest ever need for investment.
Decisions about investment need to be faster, more flexible and more responsive to local environments. It needs to be quicker, easier and cheaper to build new infrastructure.
