9.—(1) It shall be the duty of every sewerage undertaker and the relevant enforcement authority in exercising their functions under Chapter III of Part VI of the 2006 Order (trade effluent) with respect to any discharge of industrial waste water, to secure that the requirements of Schedule 4 are met in respect of that discharge.

(3) Nothing in any agreement entered into, or deemed to have been entered into, between a sewerage undertaker and the owner or occupier of premises used for carrying on any trade or industry shall be treated as a consent, direction or condition for the purposes of Chapter III of Part VI of the 2006 Order unless the terms of that agreement are such as will secure that the requirements of Schedule 4 are met in respect of any discharge to which the agreement relates.
