It is a bit like school buses. As we get back to school, it is the first morning of school that we find out whether we have a got a ticket. I understand and we all agree that we have to do our best to keep this. It is all about water quality, which we need. On the 20 rivers, which I presume are spaced out, do we have information on what rivers are tested and at what positions they are tested? Is it one point in each river? Is it numerous points on each river? It would be handy to know if they were on the back of a large farm or industrial sites and to have an idea of where the data is being collected. How far back do these reports go? Are they done every six months? Is it a six-month data collection or what way do the reports come out?
