Facing the group of debt

Scottish Water could be privatised
Daily Express (Scotland)*, 08/06/2012, p.2, Dean Herbert
ALEX Salmond could make a U-turn on keeping Scottish Water in public ownership if Scotland votes for independence, it emerged yesterday. And speaking at the London School of Economics a month earlier, Mr Salmond said the company could borrow "cheaply and easily".

Salmond: Scottish Water 'may go private'
The Times (Scotland)*, 07/06/2012, p.1, Peter Jones
Mr Salmond has floated the idea in two unreported passages of speeches he gave in London this year. His references to Scottish Water came in sections where he exemplified the benefits he claimed the economy and business would gain from independence. In February, speaking at the London School of Economics, he said that Scottish Water was effectively prevented from doing its own borrowing by "unfair and inefficient" Treasury rules that would penalise the Scottish government.
