Troubled Thames Water is to be questioned again by MPs over concerns about the “accuracy” of its evidence to a parliamentary committee as auditors warn its parent company could run out of money by April.

MPs on the environment food and rural affairs committee said they will recall the CEO of Thames Water Cathryn Ross next week to face questioning about the company’s financial stability.
