United Utilities Charges For Places Of Worship (EDM2121)

United Utilities Charges For Places Of Worship

EDM number 2121 in 2007-08, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 21/07/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Religion and faith communities, Utilities and Water industry.

That this House expresses concern at the decision by United Utilities to introduce a new method of calculating surface water charges and highways drainage services, known as Site Area Charging; recognises the negative impact this will have on churches and places of worship which, in some cases, will now face increases in their charges in excess of Â£1,000 per year as they are being treated in the same way as all other non-household customers; and calls on United Utilities to review the decision to impose Site Area Charging on churches and places of worship which cannot afford such huge increases in their water bills.

This motion has been signed by a total of 46 MPs.
