| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Thank you, Chair. David, trust is at the heart of communications and the heart of your social contract to operate in your role as chief executive. Do you agree that your trust with your customers and that social contract to deliver is central? I would put it to you that your trust has not improved. In fact, I would say…” | 158 |

| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “I would refer to a fleeting comment I made earlier; you might be asking the right questions, but you are not finding the right answers. You mentioned at the beginning that you have brought in additional skills to the board, either exec or non-exec, I cannot remember which. Can you tell me whether those skills come from…” | 71 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “That is what an injunction does.” | 6 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Going back to Ofwat’s report, as I said earlier, it identified an array of issues between 2020 and 2023, including that you contravened section 27 of the Water Industry Act. Why has compliance been such a problem for you?” | 39 |

| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Chris, you said earlier that you failed customers; you failed in your primary duty, “We failed in a number of areas, and there are opportunities for us to learn and develop.” As the Chair just said, how bad would things have to get for a change in leadership at the very top?” | 52 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Including what does not work.” | 5 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “It is not an honest conversation about the failings and flaws and issues within your organisation that you are prepared to have publicly. We are clearly not going to agree on this, but I would suggest that until you can understand that, you cannot build trust with your customer base, nor can you have good communication…” | 56 |
| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “When you were last here we were examining an issue in November. We have called you back as we are examining an issue in January. If we call you back for a third issue in the spring will we be scrutinising the same leadership team, or will it be a new face?” | 52 |

| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “That is like saying that BA are a really good airline but the planes cannot get off the ground.” | 19 |

| 14 Apr 2026 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “I would imagine they were not in the room because I cannot imagine that anyone would advise you that it would be a good move to seek an injunction against criticism of your organisation so that the public could not see it.
