WELSH WATER

Early day motion 115, tabled 12 June 1997 by Ann Clwyd (Labour). Signed by 17 members.

That this House deplores the threat by Hyder, the Welsh water and electricity group, to stop rebates to customers and discretionary environmental spending if they do not approve of the level of the Government's windfall tax; and notes with disbelief that this statement was made on the same day that Hyder reported a 24 per cent. increase in pre-tax profits.

Signatures by party: Labour 16, Plaid Cymru 1.
