To make water, gas and electricity companies owned by the public sector

Additional Information

To debate whether it would benefit the economy if utility companies were owned by the public sector so that government could control utility bills and therefore inflation almost instantly. Utility companies make huge profits and yet still persist to increase charges throughout the UK, the only reason these companies where privatised was too increase efficiency in the markets however it has just had an adverse effect on inflation.
