Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 October 2024

Debate

Water (Special Measures) Bill [HL]

Contribution

The Government have chosen not to include borrowing rules for water companies in the Bill. I anticipate that the Minister will suggest that this could be dealt with in a future water Bill. However, I ask her what the public’s response will be if a company falls into an SAO in the meantime that would not have done had this amendment been accepted into the Bill.
