Review

`. . . these papers are a useful, high quality, articulation of the view from and around Whitehall.' -- Henry Ergas, Economic Record `. . . a treasure trove of valuable insight and commentary into the utility markets and how they are, and should be, regulated.' -- European Competition Law Review `Overall the book provides a snapshot of utility regulation and debates within the UK, and thus should be of interest to researchers interested in specific utilities or regulation more generally.' -- Jason Whalley, Communications Booknotes Quarterly
