HC Deb 21 October 1992 vol 212 cc324-5W
Mr. Wallace

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he plans to continue the policy of not allowing domestic disconnections from the water supply in Scotland; and if he will make a statement.

Sir Hector Monro

We have no plans to change the present policy that domestic water supplies provided by water authorities are not subject to disconnection except for operational reasons. My right hon. Friend will shortly be publishing a consultation paper on the future structure of water and sewerage services.
