Why does water organisation governance matter?

Overview

Recording date – 15 August 2025

In the coming months, directors and boards of Water Services Organisations will be navigating a rapidly evolving governance landscape, driven by new legislation. In this dynamic 60-minute session, we explored the key features of the Water Services Entities Bill, compared potential governance models—from in-house teams to council-controlled organisations and consumer trusts—and discussed the critical roles of board accountability, council collaboration and independent oversight. Presented by leading legal and infrastructure experts and facilitated by the IoD Governance Leadership Centre, this webinar combined concise presentations, a panel discussion and moderated Q&A to equip you with practical insights for building public trust, enhancing efficiency and positioning your organisation for success under the new local water done well framework.
