Transparency in the regulation of water utilities is essential in
order to ensure quality and fairness. This book explores and
compares different regulatory arrangements in the water utilities
sectors in three jurisdictions to determine which regulatory and
ownership model is most transparent and why. The three
jurisdictions considered are England (UK), Victoria (Australia) and
Jakarta (Indonesia). Following an introduction to the importance of
transparency in water utilities regulation, the book provides an
overview of the three chosen jurisdictions and their legal and
institutional frameworks. Through a comparison of these the author
explores the contested and difficult terrain of "privatization", as
(often) opposed to public ownership, in which it is shown that the
relationships between transparency and ownership models are not as
clear-cut as might be assumed. Chapters consider various aspects
and outcomes of the regulatory process and the role of
transparency, including topics such as regulators' internal
governance mechanisms, utilities corporate governance, licensing
and information flow, freedom of information and transparency in
tariffs and pricing, as well as customer service. The book
concludes with a summary of lessons learned to inform the
refinement of transparency in utilities regulation.
