Regulation and Legislation
The House of Commons Environment Food and Rural Affairs Committee has published the timetable for tomorrow’s evidence session with Thames Water and Ofwat.
The Regulators’ Alliance for Progressing Infrastructure Development. (RAPID) has launched a consultation on commercial arrangements for enabling new water resources.
Ofwat has confirmed it is looking into the payment by Thames Water of a £37.5 million dividend payment to shareholders – the payment was set out in Thames Water Utilities Ltd Interim results for the six months period to 30 September 2023 published yesterday.
The National Audit Office (NAO) is warning that the government is underprepared for extreme weather events, such as severe floods, which have the potential to cause significant disruption to the country.
Representatives from Thames Water will return to give evidence before the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee next week, to answer MPs’ questions on Thames Water’s financial arrangements, in light of recent news reports surrounding the firm’s finances.
