Local Government (Water Services Preliminary Arrangements) Act 2024

Watercare Services Limited - Related amendments to Local Government (Auckland Council) Act 2009

108: Section 4 amended (Interpretation)

You could also call this:

"Changing the meaning of "Auckland water organisation" in the law to include Watercare Services Limited and its subsidiaries."

When you look at the law, you see that a part of it called section 4 is being changed. This change is about what is meant by the term "Auckland water organisation". You can find the original definition in section 4(1) of the law.

The new definition says that "Auckland water organisation" means Watercare Services Limited and any company that is controlled by Watercare Services Limited. This means that when the law talks about the "Auckland water organisation", it is referring to Watercare Services Limited and its subsidiaries. You can think of a subsidiary as a smaller company that is owned or controlled by a bigger company.
