Water Management Act 2000

An irrigation corporation is the owner of all water management works installed in or on land by the corporation (whether or not the land is owned by the corporation).

The provisions of Part 5 and section 88 of the Irrigation Corporations Act 1994, as in force immediately before their repeal, continue to apply for the purpose of enabling the Ministerial Corporation to transfer to an irrigation corporation any of its assets, rights and liabilities with respect to an irrigation scheme area with which the irrigation corporation was formerly connected.
