Violation Description: Commitments offered by Thames Water sought to address concerns that, as a result of the approach Thames Water chose for rolling out its smart metering programme: retailers and third-party service providers were unable to directly access water usage data from the smart meters; and Thames Water had not, as an alternative to that direct access, provided access to the water usage data gathered via the new smart meters on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory terms. The commitments also sought to address concerns that Thames Water failed to have sufficient regard to the impact of its operational business decisions as a monopoly operator of a water supply system on related markets and customers.
