Scottish Water Execs Get Bonuses Amid Rising Debts | Glasgow News
from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Scottish Water’s latest report reveals eye-watering executive bonuses amid soaring debts—over $5 billion, up $170 million in a year—while regular customers face rising bills. CEO Alex Plant took home $115K in bonus plus $315K salary, CFO Alan Dingwall got $79K, and COO Peter Farrer earned $64K, totaling $258K in bonuses—up from the prior year. Scottish Labour blasts the payouts as unjust, demanding caps on bonuses and an end to above-inflation rate hikes. Scottish Water defends the bonuses as performance-based, citing strong customer satisfaction and pollution reduction. Meanwhile, they’re pushing a $13.4B investment plan for 2027–2033 to tackle drought, flooding, and aging pipes—with water bills set to rise 2.3% above inflation for six years.
