Recommendation 80

80

It is unclear how this plan will be implemented.

Conclusion
It is unclear how this plan will be implemented. John Curtin, interim Chief Executive of the Environment Agency, suggested that resolving the implementation approach for the IPW would require political decisions on the balance of responsibility between sectors for addressing nutrient pollution: “How bold will you be? Do you want to buy X or Y farms to really reduce the nutrient effect there so that you can unlock development? Do you want a glide path that is more equitable across all sectors?” 115
