Independent Water Commission: Interim Report

The Independent Water Commission’s interim report identifies five key areas for reform in the water sector in England and Wales: strategic planning, legislative clarity, regulatory oversight, company governance, and infrastructure resilience. It emphasizes aligning environmental goals with long-term planning, simplifying legal frameworks, strengthening regulation, improving company accountability, and prioritizing asset health. Based on extensive stakeholder input, the final report is expected later in 2025.
