Long-term planning
How can the water industry help Scotland reach net zero?
Delivering best value for customers and communities
It’s our role to make sure that the investment that is made by Scottish Water provides best value. This covers not only financial value but also wider value including social and natural capital.
Encouraging better performance from Scottish Water
We challenge Scottish Water to achieve best-in-class levels of service for its customers. We do this by providing independent scrutiny of Scottish Water’s performance.
