Water Boss' Pay Raises Questions

The head of the company that owns South West Water got a big raise, despite a serious health scare from dirty water.

Customers are upset because the company has been letting sewage flow into rivers and the ocean.

The company says the raise is justified because the boss did well, but critics disagree.

They argue that she shouldn't be rewarded when people got sick from drinking contaminated water.
