Main Page: Cat Smith (Labour - Lancaster and Wyre)I associate myself with the remarks made by my hon. Friends the Members for Southampton, Test and for Blackpool South. The regulations are nothing but a U-turn from this Government. I have been contacted by many constituents on this issue. Well before that, I was determined to turn up at this Committee and express my huge concerns, especially on the safety of drinking water in my constituency. Not all my constituents are on mains water. Many of them take water from the ground, and it is for them that I am here.
Question put.
