EFRA Committee Chair comment on evidence session with Thames Water bosses

The Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee this morning held an evidence session with the CEO, CFO and Chair of Thames Water.

Reacting to the evidence session, the Chair of the Committee, Alistair Carmichael MP, said:

“Our hearing with Thames Water bosses this morning raised real concerns about the company's commitment to transparency and accountability to its customers. Alarm bells are ringing about the processes underpinning its proposed takeover bid by KKR and the potential for a corporate stitch up that benefits those at the top and fails to deliver for customers and the environment.”
