				Re: Rising cost of living
			 
 
			
			Scottish Water was never privatised and water/sewage charges are set nationally and based on council tax bands.  If you’re in a band D house you paid £478 for the year just passed and £502 from this April.  At band F I’ve been paying £691 and this will go up to £725.
 I was blessed with a communal septic tank at my old house which cost about £500 to empty, every 3 years, split between 7 houses - saved us a fortune on sewage charges over the years we were there.
