A council leader has said an investigation into a cyanide spill in Walsall Canal cannot result in just "measly words".

Leader of Walsall Metropolitan Borough Council Garry Perry said the ongoing Environment Agency (EA) probe of events at Anachrome Ltd, the firm to which the spill was traced, needed to lead to a comprehensive conclusion.

"We always talk about lessons being learnt but they are only learnt if actions are taken that are meaningful to prevent it happening again," he said.
