Proceeding contribution from Julia Goldsworthy (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 March 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Water Strategy.

In 2004, their cross-governmental review of water affordability found that a single pensioner living on the minimum pension credit and paying an average South West Water water and sewerage bill would be required to use 7 per cent. of their disposable income. The question is why the Government have done nothing before now.
