Illustration for Local Government (Water Services) Act 2025

If a territorial authority gives a water organisation the job of managing trade waste bylaws in their area, you need to think of the water organisation as the territorial authority when you read about certain rules. These rules are in sections 191 to 195. This means that when those rules say "territorial authority", you should understand it to mean the water organisation that is in charge of trade waste bylaws.
