PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Water: Conservation (15 April 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what estimate he has made of potential saving in water per person from the introduction of a mandatory water efficiency labelling scheme linked to building regulations and minimum standards.

Asked by:
James Wild (Conservative)

Answer

The Government consulted on measures to reduce personal water use in 2019 and we have committed to publish our response in late spring. Our ambitions are aligned with the recommendations set out in the National Framework to reduce personal water consumption to 110 litres per person per day by 2050. We believe our measures will enable this ambition to be met without affecting the quality of life and the enjoyment of water used by households.
