HC Deb 01 April 1993 vol 222 cc407-8W
Mr. Richards

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what guidelines on special circumstances have been issued to Welsh Water in respect of the disconnection of customers for delinquent payments.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

The Director General of Water Services issued guidelines to water companies last year on a consistent and fair approach towards customers with unpaid charges. This followed a review of companies policy and practice. He is now considering reports from the regional customer services committees on the effectiveness of the guidelines and will be considering what further action may be necessary.
