Local Government Act 2002

Regulatory, enforcement, and coercive powers of local authorities - Powers in relation to water services and trade wastes - Water supply

193: Power to restrict water supply

You could also call this:

"Rule to limit your water supply is no longer in effect"

Illustration for Local Government Act 2002

The law used to say that someone had the power to restrict your water supply, but this part of the law is no longer in effect. It was repealed on 27 August 2025 by section 172 of the Local Government (Water Services) (Repeals and Amendments) Act 2025. This means you can no longer find this rule in the law because it has been removed.
