HC Deb 05 July 1989 vol 156 c181W
Miss Widdecombe

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when the water authorities' unaudited accounts for 1988–89 will be made available.

Mr. Howard

The water authorities unaudited accounts for 1988–89 are to be placed on public deposit in accordance with statutory provisions tomorrow morning. I shall arrange for copies to be placed in the Library of the House. The annual reports and audited accounts will be published later in the summer and laid before Parliament at that time.
