00:00We have a water industry which is too powerful and a regulator that is too weak.
00:04The Liberal Democrats' view is very simple. Scrap off what and then also take the regulatory
00:08powers off the Environment Agency and create a single, unified, much more powerful regulator
00:15that will make the water industry fearful and indeed change the way the water industry operates
00:21so there is no permission to take away money out of the industry to pay dividends when they've not
00:27been earned bonuses when they're undeserved.
