Under the Government's Water Pricing Policy, local authorities are required to recover the cost of providing water services from all non-domestic customers, including farmers. Local authorities apply charges for water services per cubic metre (equivalent to 1,000 litres) consumed. The information regarding the charge per cubic metre for water services set by local authorities for 2010 is set out in the following table.
