Consumer water bills

Early day motion 7, tabled 17 July 2024 by Sarah Olney (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 47 members.

That this House regrets the large increases that have been proposed to consumer water bills; notes that water companies continue to dump sewage into local waterways; believes, as a point of principle, that it is unfair for water companies to make consumers bear the brunt of the costs for improvements to infrastructure when companies have paid out millions to shareholders in profits and bonuses to directors and executives; and calls on water companies to ensure water bills make clear to customers where their money is being spent.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 33, Green 4, Plaid Cymru 4, Independent 3, Labour 2, DUP 1.
