Anglian Water, Southern Water and Thames Water are to lift their ban on all things to do with the drought order.
About time.

Notably, there has been no announcement from Sutton & East Surrey water company.
I believe this to be because they have excessive reliance on ground water (aquifers) rather than reservoirs. Ground water seems to only recharge in winter months. We surely need a better reservoir system in this area - or the ability to link to surrounding companies' reservoirs if that's not yet possible.

Didn't they sell off a whole lot of reservoir land for housing in the 80's?

Not sure about that. I think it may have been Thames rather than S & ES.

I can only comment on Southern Water..they have failed to invest in infrastructure which has resulted in water shortages.
They still have the same reservoirs that they had in the 1960's for heavens sake!

they are all just interested in profits, it showed that in the paper the other day with bonuses given to the boss of one of the companies mentioned.
Bonus for putting people on drought restrictions and wasting loads of water should not be allowed but there is little we can do about it.
the thing that gets to me is they waste more water from leaks that we all use which is a joke in it's self

should never have been privatised
