Ofwat

Ofwat's mission is to regulate in a way that provides incentives and encourages the companies to achieve a world-class service in terms of quality and value for customers in England and Wales.

They achieve this by:

·         setting limits on what companies can charge you;

·         ensuring companies are able to carry out their responsibilities under the Water Industry Act 1991 as updated by section 39 of the Water Act 2003;

·         protecting the standard of service you receive;

·         encouraging companies to be more efficient;

·         meeting the principles of sustainable development; and

·         helping to encourage competition where appropriate.

Discussion with them indicated that those that they do not mandate any level of information security for those that they regulate they leave it to the organisation themselves to determine this on a risk assessment basis
