[Published 26 May 2021] On 26 May, the Consumer Council for Water’s (CCW) published their Independent Review of Affordability Support in Water.
The review, commissioned by Defra and Welsh Government in autumn 2020, aimed to identify if changes to existing support measures, their financing, and delivery mechanisms, could provide greater benefits to households facing financial difficulty. It provides the first opportunity in over a decade to change the landscape of water affordability support in England and Wales, identifying and retaining good practice, and making recommendations for improvements to make support fairer for all.
