Futures Trust argues for £3.5bn privatisation of Scottish Water

The Scottish Futures Trust (SFT) has ­proposed a £3.5 billion semi-­privatisation of Scottish Water to reduce the need for public spending cutbacks in other areas, the Sunday Herald can reveal.

 

Following a lengthy investigation into the nation’s water provider dating back to last year, the SFT has produced a report for the Scottish Government on how it could be funded in future.
