These Regulations supplement Part VIA (quality of water) of the Water (Scotland) Act 1980 (“the 1980 Act”) and are directed at the achievement of the objective set out in article 1(2) of Council Directive 98/83/EC (O.J. No. L 330, 5.12.98, p.32) on the quality of water intended for human consumption (“the Directive”), namely, to protect human health from the adverse effects of any contamination of water intended for human consumption, by ensuring that it is wholesome and clean. The Regulations implement the Directive insofar as it concerns private water supplies (within the meaning of regulation 2(1)).
