MODERATORS
 

Local politicians have recognised the right of a famous chalk stream, the Test in Hampshire, to flow freely and unpolluted.

Councillors on Test Valley borough council voted unanimously to acknowledge “the intrinsic rights” of the rivers within its boundaries, including the Test, which is renowned for its trout and fly fishing.

It means councillors and officials will have to keep the Test front and centre when making decisions on planning, land use, water management and biodiversity.
