Health Act 1956

Drinking water - Recognised laboratories

69ZZ: Compliance tests must be carried out by recognised laboratory

You could also call this:

"Tests must be done by a trusted lab"

When you are getting compliance tests done, they must be carried out by a recognised laboratory. You need to know that this rule is part of the Health Act 1956. This provision is actually no longer in effect, as it was repealed on 15 November 2021 by section 206(1) of the Water Services Act 2021, which you can find more information about at https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=LMS374952.
