Despite what this Government calls engagement, it's never real engagement because the ears are closed. The Cabinet papers show that the decision to proceed with compulsory centralisation was already made long before the consultation began. So let me repeat that: despite the Government talking about engagement, the Cabinet papers show that the decision to proceed with compulsory centralisation was already made long before the consultation began. So there we are. It's just a centralisation, it's just an asset grab, and it's got nothing to do with fixing the actual water. It's all to do with this Government taking everything into its own hands and not trusting our local communities and our rural communities to be able to work out ways to solve their issues.
