The English water companies have told the govt that to fix the infrastructure problems they will have to increase prices to customers.
Just worth remembering that Scottish Water – which is publicly owned – has invested nearly 35 per cent more per household in infrastructure since 2002 than the privatised English firms, charging 14 per cent less and not paying out dividends.
Conclusion ….Nationalised water works better!
@MarkHoltom looks like if the water regulators fails to make the water companies take responsibilities for the tasks they suppose to do and fail to keep the best interest of the public (by allowing service charge increase) can we not prosecute the members in water regulator body?
