DWI Information Letter 10/2005

13 July 2005

To: Board Level and Day to Day Contacts of Water and Sewerage Companies and Water Companies in England and Wales

Dear Sir or Madam

UPDATE ON THE RESTRUCTURING OF THE DRINKING WATER  INSPECTORATE

 

1. The purpose of this letter is to provide a further update on the organisational changes that are taking place in DWI.
   
   
2. On the technical side, the transitional stage is drawing to a close. This was planned to coincide with the move to 55 Whitehall, which takes place over the coming weekend. Our telephone numbers remain unchanged, as do the email addresses. Attached is a list of the new office locations, which come into effect on 18 July.
   
   
3. Also next week we will be interviewing for the three vacant Inspectors posts. Successful candidates will hopefully be in post by late September/early October. Initially they will join the Operations Group and will be introduced to their companies accordingly.
   
   
4. On a personal front, I will be leaving DWI at the end of September. My areas of responsibility are now being picked up by John Gray, Milo Purcell and David Drury.
   
   
5. Copies of this letter are being sent to Pamela Taylor, Chief Executive, Water UK; Richard Wood, Water Supply and Regulation Division, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs; June Milligan, Environment Division, Welsh Assembly Government; Tim Hooton, Drinking Water Quality Regulator for Scotland; Randal Scott, Drinking Water Inspectorate for Northern Ireland; Chairs of the Regional WaterVoice Committees; Rowena Tye and Tony Smith, Office of Water Services; Tony Warn, Environment Agency; Nigel Harrison, Food Standards Agency; and Gary Coleman at the Health Protection Agency.
   
   
6. This letter is being sent electronically to Board Level and day to day contacts. Please acknowledge receipt by email to dwi.informationletters@defra.gsi.gov.uk. Hard copies are not being sent but the letter may be freely copied. Any enquiries about the letter should be addressed directly to me.

Yours sincerely

Miss C R Jackson
Deputy Chief Inspector of Drinking Water
