committees which act as a two-way channel of communication
and contribute to its decision-making process.
The committees help to build stronger links between
the Agency and those it works with, especially
businesses and their associations.
The Environment Agency is the
leading organisation for protecting and improving
the environment in England and Wales. It is responsible
for making sure that air, land and water are looked
after by today’s society, so that tomorrow’s generations
inherit a cleaner, healthier world.
