    There is a reason it is important whether someone is paying for costs of extraction from source, storage, treatment, reticulation, disposal or for the H2O itself. And that is once H2O is charged for separately from the supply to/from site there becomes a question of ownership. How can some body be paid for something nobody owns. Which is currently the case.

    We change that at our peril.

    I suspect he is referring to a "survey" I saw somewhere recently which basically asked "do you agree to tax commercial water bottling exporters". Fairly shallow and avoids the big issue questions around this "policy".

    The survey was taken at a meeting run by the befuddled for the bewildered.

    That's an online survey that is linked. So no real credibility to the figures provided. Self selecting etc.

    And it still does nothing to tidy up the ownership issue. But then again, Labour doesn't like detail.
