The Environment Agency will use your feedback to produce updated river basin management plans (RBMPs) that will inform, improve, and shape how the water environment is managed. You will be able to see how it has been taken into account and improved the plans themselves in a summary document available in autumn 2022.

The Environment Agency will also use your responses to consider how some of the current approaches to managing water in England will need to change with a changing climate and a growing population. Your feedback will help to shape wider water policy and investment decisions beyond the horizon of the RBMPs.
