00:00Well, over the last 10 years, the water company executives have paid themselves over £100 million in bonuses
00:06despite overseeing record levels of sewage pollution in our rivers, lakes and seas.
00:12The era of profiting from pollution ends with this government.
00:17So today, bonuses have been banned for six of the nine water companies.
00:22That's what we said we would do before the general election.
00:25Promise made, promise delivered.
00:27Banning water bosses' bonuses is only one step towards resetting this sector.
00:32We're cracking down with much tougher enforcement.
00:34So there are 81 criminal investigations that we've launched into the water companies.
00:39We've secured over £104 billion of private sector investment to fix the broken sewage pipes
00:45and stop the sewage flowing into our waterways.
00:48But we're also modernising the system with new rules, giving the regulator the real teeth they need
00:53so that the abuses of the past cannot continue into the future.
00:57That is how we clean up our rivers, lakes and seas for good.
