Chris Huhne
Liberal Democrat MP for Eastleigh
Water companies must spend more on fixing leaks
Commenting on Sutton and East Surrey Water’s announcement that it has increased its profits to £6.4 million, Liberal Democrat Shadow Environment Secretary, Chris Huhne MP said:
“If Sutton and East Surrey Water were to spend more money on fixing leaks rather than pocketing these vast profits, then maybe its drought order would not have been necessary.
“The regulator must get tougher with the water companies if customers are to expect value for money and a secure water supply.”
