Ahead of the debate, the Government announced plans to introduce changes to the Bill relating to sewage discharges into rivers. These would impose new legal duties on the Government and water companies to take action on this issue.
Specifically, the Government has said it plans to introduce a duty on government to publish a plan by September 2022 to reduce sewage discharges from storm overflows, and to report to Parliament on progress on implementing this plan. It also plans to introduce a duty on water companies to publish data on storm overflow operation on an annual basis.

The Bill will now be considered by the House of
Lords, where the Government has said these new provisions will be added to the
Bill. You can find out more about the Bill, and the timetable for when it is
next due to be debated in Parliament, here:
