Claims that the Govt amendment weakens existing legislation are also wrong. The water companies have an existing Section 94(1)(b) duty to treat sewage “effectually”, which has existed since 1991, and the new amendment does not replace nor override this duty. — PolitiTweet.org

Claims that failing to support the Lords Amendment of the Duke of Wellington (which I voted for last week) means an MP is voting in favour of sewage discharges is disingenuous. The Bill is introducing a host of measures to tackle sewage discharges not previously in statute. — PolitiTweet.org

The problem is that this duty has not been enforced. The new duties and the focus on preventing sewage discharges which this growing awareness and debate has prompted, will place greater pressure on the EA, Ofwat and DEFRA to require investment in treatment infrastructure, — PolitiTweet.org
