Consultation

Between 11 September and 4 December 2024, we held a public consultation on our revised draft Water Resources Management Plan. This consultation has now closed – thank you to everyone who took part and gave their feedback.

During the consultation period, we held eight in-person roadshow events at locations across our supply area. At each event, customers and stakeholders could find out more about the revised draft plan and speak to members of our team. We also held five webinars that included a presentation about the revised draft plan and a question and answer session. You can view a recording from one of the webinars below.

Following the close of the consultation, we considered all feedback received and produced a final draft WRMP. We also produced a Statement of Response, which explains how we consulted on the revised draft WRMP and how we have taken into account your feedback. You can find more information on the final draft WRMP and our Statement of Response here.
