The Welsh government must use all its powers – present and future - to tackle Sewage in Wales.

Wales

The Clean the Bill campaign is largely focused on England's failed profit driven system and the UK governments law to fix it going through the Westminster Parliament later this year. However, it should also lay out the devolution of more powers to the Senedd to enable the Welsh Government to take more action around water quality and its regulation.

We need a Clean Water Bill for Wales that will:

1. Protect Public Health

  • Set legally binding targets to end untreated sewage discharges affecting bathing waters and popular recreational waters by 2030.

  • Introduce a world leading water quality testing regime that monitors emerging pollutants and protects water users wherever, whenever and however, they use the water.

2. Transform the Welsh Water System

  • Transform Natural Resource Wales into a tough, independent regulator with the resourcing and enforcement powers it needs to protect public and environmental health.

  • Centre economic regulation on public benefit ensuring customer money is used to deliver environmental and public health improvements.

  • Ensure Welsh Water companies are structured with the focus of protecting public and environmental health.
