Northumbrian creates 3,000 jobs a year
“Jobs created per year: 3,000 (Northumbrian Water)”
misleading Retired in version 2.0.0, 2 October 2026.
Where it appeared: Home page: Northumbrian card; Briefing paper, sections 2 and 7.
Why it failed
It is a company projection for its whole £2.6bn programme (pipes, sewers and treatment), not for digestion. The same release's group version pairs 3,000 jobs with a £3.6bn programme, so no basis is stated.
