Proceeding contribution from Dan Rogerson (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Water Industry (Financial Assistance) Bill.


Water Industry (Financial Assistance) Bill

On the question of how WaterSure will be funded and placing obligations on companies, if we have a funded social tariff in the south-west, it will have a disproportionate effect on the other bill payers who are paying into the pot. More work needs to be done before we start pushing regions down the route of having generous social tariffs, because we need to know what costs are being loaded on to other bill payers in the region.
