Water Industry Commission for Scotland (WICS)RSS feed

The Water Industry Commission for Scotland is the regulator of the State-owned water and sewerage company Scottish Water.

The Commission chaired by Sir Ian Byatt (ex Ofwat) replaced the office of the Water Industry Commissioner on 1 July 2005. The former Commissioner, Alan Sutherland, is chief executive.

The Commission's website is at http://www.watercommission.co.uk/. It has major accessibility problems:

  • Some features, including news, are offered through Adobe Flash only. (But there seems to be a hidden RSS feed.)
  • The site was restructured on Thursday 28 February 2008, breaking all links, with no attempt at providing forwarding addresses for documents.
