What we do

The UKELA Water Working Party is involved in formulating UKELA's views on government consultation papers, European initiatives and other legal developments relating to water resource protection and management, the marine environment, water pollution issues, flood defence, fisheries, and other topics relevant to the management of the UK’s freshwater and marine environment.

Who we are

The Working Party includes members working in different fields concerned with water law.  Participants include individuals from statutory agencies and non-governmental organisations, environmental and planning consultants, lawyers in private and public sector practice and academics. We hold our AGM in March, and aim to hold two other meetings each year: in summer (at UKELA's annual conference) and in autumn.  We welcome all UKELA members with experience of water law.  All UKELA members can attend our meetings at which external speakers cover water-related issues and topics of wider environmental interest.
