PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
YORKSHIRE WATER (No. 2) (9 January 1996)
Motion Details
That this House believes that the disastrous record of Yorkshire Water, and the ensuing hiatus in its board and management structure, presents an urgent and continuing threat to the water and sewerage service in the county; and asks the Secretary of State to take emergency powers, under sections 23 to 26 of the Water Act 1991, to intervene in the interests of the customers, and to apply to the High Court for a special administration order to take over the company until a new board and management structure is in place.
