'Looking to the future' - our final business plan and strategic direction statement

Our plans for water services in Essex & Suffolk

We are preparing our plans for the future.  Our aim is to keep bills as low as we can whilst ensuring you continue to receive sufficient supplies of safe, clean drinking water and excellent customer service.

Our final business plan sets out in detail our plans for the period 2010-15.  It takes into account the feedback we have had on our draft business plan from customers, the Consumer Council for Water, Regulators and other stakeholders.

Summary or full versions of our public domain final business plan can be downloaded for our Essex & Suffolk area, or for the company as a whole (North East plus Essex & Suffolk), by clicking on the appropriate link below.
