Water Industry

Proceeding contribution from Julian Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 November 2013. It occurred during Backbench debate on Water Industry.

The right hon. Gentleman’s intervention is very accurate.

Those highly paid—highly compensated—board members showed no contrition about how tough it is at the moment for consumers. They basically said that they would not budge on their stretching of the tax rules to ensure that they paid no tax. We talked about the clause in their commitment to customers where they said that they would be responsible and that they were environmentally and socially engaged, but they just would not listen.
