Proceeding contribution from Elliot Morley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Flood and Water Management Bill.

Flood and Water Management Bill

I too welcome the new clause, because we need to clarify social tariffs on water use. Indeed, we have a social tariff structure on energy use. My hon. Friend will agree that a lot of work has been done on this subject through reports that he has commissioned and by bodies such as the Consumer Council for Water, but the public need to be fully consulted, so I would be grateful for some assurances about that.
