Rain Tax
The Government have announced that it is going to intervene to stop Ofwat’s rain tax and introduce a sensible social water charging regime.
Over the past year, The Scout Association has been campaigning against Ofwat’s planned changes to the way water companies charge community groups in England and Wales for the disposal of rainwater.
The Government’s announcement will be welcomed by all community groups across England and Wales who have been frustrated by Ofwat’s failure to understand the damage and financial hardship their policies were going to cause.
