To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to support giving their proposed post-Brexit environmental watchdog the power to take the Government to court and issue fines for breach of environmental rules.


This question was answered on 18th June 2018

In accepting the amendment to the EU (Withdrawal) Bill tabled by the Rt Hon Member for West Dorset, the government has confirmed the new body will have the ability to take the government to court. Consultees are encouraged to submit views on any other enforcement measures which may be necessary through our ongoing consultation.
