Conduct Of The Director-General Of Ofwat

EDM number 1003 in 1993-94, proposed by John Gunnell on 12/04/1994.

That this House, believing that a regulatory body should be independent from those it regulates, congratulates the Yorkshire Post on revealing the network of appointments to the chairmanships of the regional consumer water services committees by Ian Byatt, Director-General of OFWAT; recognises that they show that nepotism, a close relationship to water companies and a willingness to accept his directives are far more important to him than the needs of consumers; knows that this is entirely consistent with his sacking of Diana Scott from the Yorkshire Committee because she represented consumers as she saw fit; and calls on him to resign forthwith and the Secretary of State for the Environment to ask for his resignation if it is not proffered.

This motion has been signed by a total of 117 MPs.
