I read with interest Mitchell and Brown (2019) paper and I have some minor comments that need to be made to correct the article for future reference purposes.
Paragraph 1 states ‘.. water companies own the majority, …’ this is not correct. They may own the highest percentage but not the majority.
Figure 1(a) and the first paragraph of Section 4 both ignore the Water Act 2003. This made crucial changes to the Reservoirs Act 1975 (single regulator, powers to require Flood Plans etc.).
I also suggest that figure 1(b) would be enhanced by actual percentage numbers.
