Abstract
Yardstick competition as a tool to set the prices of regional natural monopolies is now an established tool. After 30 years of application to the water industry in England and Wales, this article takes a critical look at how yardstick competition has been implemented in the latest Price Review 2019 (PR19). It proposes reforms to ensure that in the next Price Review 2024 (PR24) and/or beyond the efficiency challenges are appropriately set and the degree of information at the regulator’s disposal is maximised.
