This section of the law, called 'Power to stop water services', used to be part of the Local Government Act 2002. However, it no longer exists. The government removed this section on 1 July 2008. They did this when they made changes to another law about drinking water. If you want to know more about why this change happened, you might need to look at the Health (Drinking Water) Amendment Act 2007.
