What delegates came to discuss…
This conference discussed the future development of water markets in England - including the regulatory frameworks and industry action needed to meet environmental, consumer service, and infrastructure modernisation requirements and obligations.
The conference also looked at latest thinking on priorities for the Price Review 2024, including:
- future challenges and opportunities for the water sector
- how to reflect customer preferences in future price reviews
- what has been learned from the Price Review 2019
Discussion focused on next steps for England’s water market in the context of wider policy initiatives, such as the Environment Bill and the National Infrastructure Strategy, alongside other significant factors such as the recovery from COVID-19 and the necessity of adapting to climate change.
