Sewage Treatment And Sea Water Quality
EDM number 357 in 1997-98, proposed by Desmond Turner on 27/10/1997.
That this House deplores the current and continuing practice of water companies in discharging raw sewage through sea outfalls, having no plans in many cases for enhancing the treatment of the discharged sewage so that the microbial contamination of coastal waters can be prevented; and therefore requests the Government to examine the setting of higher standards of sewage treatment that would be made a statutory requirement.
This motion has been signed by a total of 78 MPs.
