Speaking in the House of Lords on 21 November 2024

Debate

Water Bills

Contribution

My Lords, I am pleased to say that in Scotland we have water in public ownership. Water rates are generally collected as part of the council tax, and the bands can vary from £155 to £465 per annum. Does the Minister agree that privatisation was the biggest mistake ever made about water? I hope that we can rationalise it throughout the UK in years to come.
