Water and Sewerage Services Act (Northern Ireland) 2016 (2016 Chapter 7).

This Act amends the Water and Sewerage Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 so as to ensure that the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development continues subsidy payments to Northern Ireland Water Ltd (NI Water) in lieu of household water charges. It also: stipulates that Schedule 1 (which amends Chapter 1 of Part 4 of the 2006 Order so as to align the procedures for making water resources management plans and drought plans, and to permit them to be prepared in a single document) has effect; provides for the power of the Department to remove or relax duty to install water meters when making domestic connections; defines “sustainable drainage system” and provides for some matters in respect of sewerage.
