Water Services Entities Bill
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.
This bill establishes four publicly owned water services entities that will provide safe, reliable, and efficient water services in place of local authorities.MP in charge
