So when ni water gets fined we pay for it, which is weird too.

In England and Wales at least, if the water company is fined, they can't pass the cost on to the consumer

they can't pass the cost on to the consumer

But do they have any other income stream apart from the consumer?

Retail/commercial customers provide a different revenue stream

Some have waste/energy/recycling businesses which provide other revenue streams within the larger parent group

But the fine lands up either coming from shareholders receiving less profits, borrowing or less investment being made
