There is a law called the Health Act 1956 that has a part about what happens during a drinking-water emergency. You need to know that some officers have special powers during this time, but the part of the law that says what these powers are has been repealed. This means it is no longer in force, and it was repealed by the Water Services Act 2021, which you can read more about on the legislation website.
