Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Groundwater (England and Wales) Regulations 2009.
Groundwater (England and Wales) Regulations 2009
The Environment Agency is under the scrutiny of the obvious source; namely, the Secretary of State. He examines the decisions the agency takes. If it were thought that the agency was levying charges that could not be justified by the actions being carried out, the Secretary of State would be expected to act. I am in no doubt that if it did not happen at this end of the building, there would be a fair fuss at the other end. There is a fallback position in those terms. I just say to the noble Lord, Lord Greaves, that the current four-yearly review is in its last cycle, which will be completed in 2012.
