The appointment caused some controversy over a perceived conflict of interest regarding Arup's involvement in the fracking industry in the UK and the Environment Agency's role as its regulator.
In October 2015 Dilley became an ex-officio member of the board for the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). [1]
