I read with interest the discussion in the Argus (Letters, January 30) about water shortages and restrictions.
If there are not sufficient supplies for existing customers, why are we told there is enough water for large numbers of new homes to be built?
My water rates are £500 per year. If my supply is to be restricted because the water companies have failed to make the necessary investments to maintain stocks (eg desalination plants), can I assume my bills will then be reduced, as I am no longer receiving the service I am paying for? Or will the water companies still expect full payment for half the service?
