Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has welcomed today’s announcement that Scottish Water’s combined water and waste water service charges will remain steady for households across Scotland during 2011/2012.
Commenting Mr Stevenson said:
“In these financially difficult times this is good news for hard pressed families and shows that the Scottish Government has been overseeing our public finances effectively.
“With plans to deliver a council tax freeze these charges will be a welcome relief to many families and households in Banff & Buchan.
“Every little helps and all households will feel the benefit of improved services at reduced prices.
“The Scottish Government is doing its best to assist householders in these difficult times and today’s announcement by Scottish Water underlines that hard work.”
