Debate between Charlie Maynard and Lindsay Hoyle

Thursday 6th February 2025 Commons Chamber

[Charlie Maynard (Witney) (LD)]

Constituents in Witney were extremely distressed to receive letters this week from Thames Water saying that their bills are going up by £19 a month from April, putting more pressure on household bills. Does the Minister think that is acceptable, given that the restructuring plan in the High Court is putting £800 million to £900 million of interest expenses on to this company—

[Mr Speaker]

Order. This is sub judice, and the hon. Member should not go into the actual detail of the application before the Court at the moment. Can the Minister say anything? If not, we will have to move on.
