The company says its scheme to cut storm overflow discharges has not delivered the results it expected.

Government proposals under review would let local leaders direct some water company spending and hold executives accountable over bills and sewage discharges, according to The Guardian.

Government proposal reportedly includes creating nine regional bodies to plan, set objectives and hold water firms accountable, according to BBC Politics.

Documents show water companies have advised on how a new consumer accountability scheme will work, prompting criticism from campaigners.
