You asked

I would like to request information on analysis the ONS has undertaken to prepare for a change in ownership of Thames Water.

Has there been any correspondence between the ONS and the Treasury about the impact of Project Timber?

What analysis and results has the ONS found about the impacts of Project Timber, particularly with its impacts on net public sector borrowing?

We said

Thank you for your request.

ONS has not undertaken any analysis of Thames Water, so the impact on public sector net borrowing is unknown. There has been no correspondence between HM Treasury and the ONS on Project Timber.
