Water companies should no longer be allowed to monitor their own levels of sewage pollution, the industry body has told the BBC exclusively.
Instead they are proposing a new, third-party monitoring system to build consumer trust.
The recommendation is part of a submission made to the UK government’s independent review into the water sector.
Not just sewage,no idea whats in the water in the stream that backs our village but theres nothing alive in it. I saw an otter in it last year and never saw it again, it probably melted.
