Water Supply and Sanitation (Licensing Board) Regulations, 2018.

These Regulations, comprising 17 sections, apply to engineers, technicians, and craftsmen engaged in water and sanitation works. They establish a Water and Sanitation Licensing Board responsible for issuing licences, maintaining a register of licensed professionals, regulating their activities, organising training programmes, promoting professional conduct and integrity, disseminating relevant information, collaborating with national and international professional bodies, ensuring compliance with licensing standards, reviewing licensing criteria, and performing any additional public-interest functions directed by the Minister. The Board is empowered to suspend or revoke licences for reasons including breach of workmanship standards, suspension from practice, non-payment of fees, insolvency, criminal conviction within the preceding year, unsound mind, or other justified grounds, and to inspect worksites to verify that construction and installation activities are carried out by duly licensed practitioners. Licences are issued upon application and are required to undertake regulated activities, and may be cancelled, revoked, or suspended where licensees fail to comply with prescribed conditions or professional standards.
