Another big issue is group water schemes, which supply thousands of rural homes. They have received only one mention in the review, which is disappointing. Has any work been done to equip these vital systems with generators to ensure continuity after major storms such as Storm Éowyn? We do not want to see it happen again that so many houses are without water. Does someone have an update on generators?
