Anglian Water PR19 Executive Summary: Reply to Ofwat's Anglian Water PR19 Executive Summary: Reply to Ofwat's Response to Anglian's Statement of Case 1 Overarching Comments (1) Part 1 of this Executive Summary sets out some overarching comments that are relevant for the CMA's consideration of Ofwat's Response in the round. 1.1 Anglian Water: a company with social and environmental purpose at its heart (2) Anglian does not recognise the company which Ofwat has portrayed to the CMA in its response to the Company's Statement of Case ("SOC") and in its subsequent presentation. Ofwat has sought to portray Anglian as being focused on gaming the regulatory regime, paying very large and unjustified dividends to shareholders, and seeking additional costs only to pay dividends in AMP7. It sums this up by claiming that "Anglian Water's case is that customers should pay more and receive less".1 (3) In fact, Anglian's Business Plan would have enabled customers to pay less in bills, whilst receiving more. Its Plan is focused on doing the right thing for customers and the environment, now and in the future, and is in line with customers' clearly expressed preferences. Ofwat's FD, by contrast, would give customers less of what they want, and force Anglian to implement a series of sub-optimal short-term solutions that will, in the long-term, cause overall costs to be greater. Future customers will be left facing bigger costs, and bigger risks, than they should. (4) Anglian is a leading performer overall in the sector, innovating to become the industry-leader on leakage reduction, leading on drinking water quality measures and capital carbon reduction, highly regarded by peers, stakeholders, its supply chain and most importantly its customers and colleagues. Its suite of external awards and endorsements recognise these achievements, including being recognised as a responsible business and leading the way in embedding social and environmental purpose in its constitution. (5) Anglian's track record shows it has paid dividends to shareholders when it has delivered strong performance against the regulatory contract. This is precisely the outcome that the incentive-based regulation system aims to deliver, and sees customers also benefiting when a company performs well, in four main ways: (i) firstly, they receive a higher standard of service; (ii) secondly, they directly share in the benefits of the outperformance of the regulatory contract; (iii) thirdly, the efficiencies delivered are then baked into a lower cost base for future price reviews and have enabled reinvestment into the business with the support of shareholders; and (iv) fourthly, the innovations made to drive frontier performance are shared with other companies, so bringing benefits to customers across England and Wales. (6) For many years Anglian has worked hard to do the right thing, achieving a balance between the legitimate interests of its owners and the delivery of good outcomes for customers and the environment, serving a region that is the most water-stressed in the UK and growing rapidly. (7) This approach has been "locked in" following a change to Anglian's Articles of Association last year, which embedded social and environmental purpose into the articles that govern its management, and created a “North Star” for all decision-making, including the one the Board took to seek a reference to the CMA. (8) Anglian's Business Plan is rooted in an assessment of the long-term context, as set out in its Strategic Direction Statement. This is very much in line with the priorities set out by Government in its formal 1 Response to Anglian, para. 1.3. 2 Executive Summary: Reply to Ofwat's Response to Anglian’s SOC guidance to Ofwat, and with Ofwat's new Resilience Duty. Anglian's AMP7 plan builds on its AMP6 plan which delivered the biggest bill reduction in the sector at PR14. (9) Anglian's Plan seeks to get on with addressing resilience rather than “kicking the can down the road”. The related increase in scope necessarily sees costs higher than at PR14, but this step change is in line with customer preferences, Government policy, and Ofwat's Resilience Duty. Moreover, taking action now represents better value for money in the long run, a point made clearly in the National Infrastructure Commission's 2018 Report, "Preparing for a Drier Future", which concluded that delay in taking action to boost supply resilience to drought would lead to a near doubling of costs over the next 30 years.2 (10) As explained in the SOC, when assessed in the round, the overall balance of risk and return created by the FD is strongly skewed to the downside.3 This creates problems which manifest themselves in all of the key areas of the financing decisions in the FD: an inadequate level of WACC, an FD that does not meet the financeability test for the notional company, an incorrect allocation of allowed funds between opex and capex, and a penal Gearing Outperformance Sharing Mechanism. Anglian and the other appellants are not alone in considering that Ofwat has erred in its approach to balance of risk and return; this point has been made in a number of third-party representations made to the CMA. (11) Anglian recognises the twin demands of investing for resilience and ensuring affordability in its Plan for those struggling to pay or otherwise vulnerable. It remains of the view that a redetermination that upheld its Plan would meet both objectives: allowing a significant increase in support for those struggling to pay (expected to be a larger proportion of customers in the wake of Covid-19), while also allowing a step-change in investment for resilience. 1.2 Covid-19 (12) In previous correspondence Anglian has expressed the desire to find early resolution to the redetermination process to allow all parties to focus on responding to Covid-19 and ensuring customers continue to receive essential services. (13) Regrettably, Ofwat seems to have concluded that, despite the huge amount of evidence and expert reports submitted in the SOCs, there are almost no points that any party has raised that merit any adjustment to its FD position. This inflexible position seems to close the door on finding a way forward to early resolution. Anglian has, however, indicated to the CMA that it would be happy to consider some workshops on certain methodological issues that concern all disputing companies, to assist the CMA in formulating its redetermination. (14) Anglian is writing separately to the CMA to set out early views on impacts on the business of Covid-19. In particular, Anglian notes that the diminution of revenues worsens the position on financeability and its ability to maintain a Baa1 credit rating, which the FD already undermines. Covid-19 impacts, which are outside management control, also have a more negative effect on Anglian because of the punitive cost-sharing ratios the FD has imposed, making it more difficult to minimise impacts on customers during the pandemic. Anglian seeks no special favours, but the crisis makes it all the more urgent to correct the mistakes in Ofwat's FD. 1.3 Anglian's approach to preparing its Reply to Ofwat's Response (15) Anglian recognises the scale of the task before the CMA, and the large volume of materials already submitted to it. With that in mind, this Reply to Ofwat's Response has been kept as concise as possible. 2 NIC Preparing for a Drier Future Report, page 21 (SOC270). 3 Anglian's SOC, Chapter A: Executive Summary, para. 105. 3 Executive Summary: Reply to Ofwat's Response to Anglian’s SOC (16) To help the CMA, the key points from Ofwat's Response are summarised in a table. This references each point made, Anglian's response to it, and where the evidence to support the response can be found (either already within Anglian's SOC or included as part of this Reply). The table also highlights where Ofwat has not addressed relevant evidence set out in the SOC. (17) Inevitably, this Reply focuses on Ofwat's Response document. However, where possible Anglian draws attention to ways in which the CMA could seek to resolve the issues identified, in its redetermination. (18) Clearly, different statements have been made to the CMA regarding the level of cost increase compared to AMP6 that Anglian is seeking. This is an important issue, and Anglian proposes that the CMA could seek to resolve this specific question as part of the preliminary phases of its work, taking on board feedback from all relevant parties, before it reaches its provisional findings. 1.4 Setting the record straight (19) Before turning to the detail of its Reply, Anglian would like to highlight a number of aspects of Ofwat's Response where Anglian believes Ofwat has mischaracterised important points and/or has invited the CMA to draw inferences which, in Anglian's view, are not the appropriate views to form when all of the facts and data are understood. These include the following: Table 1 Correcting mischaracterisations Ofwat Assertion Anglian's Position Anglian has a track record of high Ofwat is aware that the dividend figures which it used in dividends and has paid extraordinarily support of this claim5 include both intra-group payments of high dividends over the last 10 years, £192 million annually, and a special intra-group payment of with an average gross annual nominal £1.6 billion (which Ofwat acknowledges to have been made dividend return on actual equity of in 2018 to settle an intercompany loan and to simplify the around 35%.4 Company's accounts in its drive to improve transparency). Neither of these payments ever left the Group.

In this document general matters, which reflects the agreed position of all the companies United Utilities Water Limited Strategic regional water resource solutions Affinity Water, Anglian Water, Severn Trent Water, Southern Water, South West, Thames Water, United Utilities, Wessex Water 30 August 2019 Joint Company Statement Following the Draft Determination (DD) the working group has met several times to continue to work collaboratively to optimise the processes for developing the next set of strategic water resource solutions. The DD has added some additional options into the mix of schemes as well as increasing the number of companies working across the schemes from six to eight. These additional companies and schemes are welcomed as they will help provide additional choices when deriving the best value plans for customers, stakeholders and the environment. Our engagement with the regulators during the development of the plan have continued to help and shape this response. The recent meetings with RAPID, EA and Ofwat (in July and August) have been very encouraging and we look forward to working collaboratively to align the gated processes, national framework timetables and statutory planning processes. We want to ensure that the timetables and processes are efficient and co-ordinated, and we believe we can achieve this through a few simple re-alignments of some of the gates during the process.

In the publication of the July Draft Determinations for slow-track companies, Ofwat has made some adjustments to Outcome Delivery Incentives (ODIs). 2. We are pleased that on the whole our ODI’s in the round remain broadly in line with our Draft Determination following some changes at the Initial Assessment of Plans (IAP) stage with the Early Certainty Principle (ECP) providing some protection in this area. 3. This view of our ODIs is based on retaining the internal sewer flooding enhanced outperformance rate, which we represented on at our Draft Determination in April. The intervention at Draft Determination if applied would have a material impact on our outperformance payments (up to £1m outperformance a year). 4. We are restating our initial Draft Determination representation regarding internal sewer flooding enhanced outperformance rates and there are some clarifications and observations that we are making within our representation as follows on: • Leakage performance commitment rates • Priority services register reporting guidance • Pollutions • D-MeX • Compliance risk index (CRI). 3 Internal sewer flooding enhanced outperformance rates 5. We consider our proposed internal sewer flooding enhanced rate to be based on customers’ views, appropriate and balanced and not an outlier compared to other companies enhanced rates.

  • Service Delivery Report 2019-20 Introduction
    Service delivery report 2019-20 Introduction The service delivery report provides comparative information on both the total expenditure (totex) and the outcomes delivered to customers, as reported by the 17 largest companies within England and Wales. This report provides comparative information on important areas of performance. It should not be read as a final statement on performance, but is intended to supplement the more detailed information in companies’ Annual Performance Reports (APRs). This information will help us – and stakeholders such as customer groups, environmental groups and investors – to hold companies to account. This report is based on performance data for the last year of the 2015-20 price control period and also demonstrates trends in totex and outcomes across the five-year control period. Similar to the report in 2018-19, we: • provide comparative ranking of companies’ performance • present overall performance on total expenditure and outcome delivery in a single, tabulated view; and • examine longer-term changes on key indicators For 2019-20 we also include per capita consumption in our assessments of outcome delivery. We present an assessment of the shadow customer measure of experience (C-MeX) instead of service incentive mechanism (SIM) and include commentary on the developer services and business retail markets. This year, we also focus more closely on two areas – leakage and environmental performance. For environmental performance, we set out a selection of some of the company specific performance commitments companies were set for 2015-20 and how they have performed. By their nature these are less comparable across companies. Improving life through water | Gwella bywyd drwy ddŵr | 2 Key messages Our analyses of companies’ relative performance in 2019-20 demonstrates that Wessex Water is a better performing company for a second consecutive year.

As part of its vision to be the U.K.'s leading water and wastewater company, in 2012 NWL embarked on a program aimed at transforming field service operations. The objective was to implement significant and sustainable improvements to field service operations by designing and implementing changes to NWL processes and technology to ensure that the company delivers work at the right time with the right people in the right place. Key features of the program include the following: . The development of a transformative operational business vision of field services jointly executed by business and IT in four months as the foundation for change. The deployment of a consistent end-to-end field service management process across the serviced territory. The implementation of a new mobile workforce solution executed in about 15 months by Infosys in collaboration with NWL using Oracle Utilities Mobile Workforce Management (OUMWM) software. The solution has been in operation since November 2014. While still in deployment the field service program generated financial benefits of about £1.2 million. Even more is expected in the future considering the project is improving productivity in planning, scheduling, execution, and completion of works.
