Water Market de-regulated in England

Water Market de-regulated in England

The water market was de-regulated on 1st April. This means businesses no longer have to stick with their regional supplier.

The aim is to improve customer service and create saving opportunities for businesses. By introducing competition, customers are now able to choose a provider best suited for their needs and customer service expectations.

All water providers will need to have a water supply and sewerage licence and Ofwat will continue to regulate the industry.
