A government consultation on water resources in our area closed on 4 December.

Richard Knight, who was the Green Party candidate in East Hants in this year's general election, has concerns about plans for a proposed 10 year infrastructure project and importing water from Norway.

He tells Mike Waddington that priorities are wrong. Water Resource Plans deal with legitimate concerns but he’s asking for a rethink.
