Cost of plumbing services

Motion Text

That this House recognises the significant and rising cost of plumbing services and, in particular, emergency call-outs; notes with concern that the cost-of-living crisis is increasingly limiting people's ability to access the plumbing services they need; further notes that the rural premium exacerbates such challenges, where communities are often remote and disproportionately elderly and face particular difficulty in accessing timely and affordable services; and calls on the Government to increase investment to address skills shortages in the plumbing sector.
