Water Act 2014 Explanatory Notes

Section 35: Operation of register

164.This section replaces section 195(4) to (6) of the WIA with new subsections (4) to (4B). The effect is to remove the powers of the Secretary of State and the Welsh Ministers to specify by order the times at which Ofwat’s register of regulatory actions must be made available for inspection and the fees that are payable to Ofwat for inspection and for any copies of the papers contained in the register. Instead, Ofwat is to publish a notice setting out how the register is to be accessed.
