| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “You say “compliant”, but four out of five were the worst-performing, and six required improvement. I know that you personally are a high performer. Are you satisfied with those results?” | 30 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “It is interesting, and I hear you say that you are proud of that record, but, at the same time, in 2023, which is the year that we are all looking at the data for, the River Severn was the most affected river in the country for untreated sewage spills. You were responsible for four out of five of the worst-performing s…” | 83 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Severn Trent is one of the highest performing companies in terms of environmental performance. How have you achieved this?” | 19 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “You are telling us that that is what it was for.” | 11 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Did you fund it from the Trimpley account?” | 8 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Is that from your £1.6 billion Trimpley pot?” | 8 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “I am sorry to push back, but I cannot square off the two different things that you are saying. Over here, you have £1.6 billion in a bank account that is labelled “rainy day” for exactly this purpose. Over here, you are saying that you are borrowing, at risk, £600 million plus £450 million that you will pay back over 2…” | 74 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 588) “Could I just pick up on that? I was really interested in your previous answer. You explained the Trimpley savings account as a rainy day account to avoid the volatility of bill increases, and yet the 47% increase that you are describing is the highest increase of any water company in the UK. Why did you not use your ra…” | 82 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “We are moving on now to the policy statement and the legal duty. The legal duty to have regard to the EIP has been in force since November 2023. Is there evidence that the benefits have been embedded effectively in DEFRA and across the Government as a whole, or can you tease out some examples where you think it is not …” | 64 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “That is timely, because of DEFRA undertaking this review of the cross-Government implementation. It says that it should be finished this summer. What do you think that should entail? Is there a particular output that you are hoping to see?” | 40 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “Do you agree with that, Ms Prosser?” | 7 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “It could be a key moment for you to help us with some good recommendations that we can feed in.” | 20 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “Do you have any particular concerns, where you think it has not made a difference or not yet cut through?” | 20 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “The last round of questions from me is around public investment. Your recent report assessment suggests that Government should generate funds for public investment through application of the polluter pays principle. I find that interesting. This morning, I was guesting on the EFRA Committee. We were interviewing the pr…” | 99 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “That was just an example.” | 5 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “To incentivise behaviour change.” | 4 |
| 26 Feb 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 730) “It is a key moment. As a Committee, we are often interviewing organisations like yours, whose job is around regulation. We are usually sharing joint frustrations around enforcement not being as quick or as forceful as we would like. Perhaps fines and incentivisation can move this up people’s agenda and add teeth. I thi…” | 73 |
