Shortage of water
31 Shortage of water
If at any time the supply of water at the disposal of the undertakers appears, in their opinion, likely, unless specially conserved, to become insufficient for all demands on it, they may by advertisement prohibit the use of their water for such purposes as they think least beneficial to the public, wholly or at such times as they think fit.
Any person whose business, trade, or living is adversely affected by an advertisement under this section may appeal to the Minister who may upon hearing that person, any other appellants against the same advertisement, and the undertakers, order the undertakers to vary the advertisement and the undertakers shall comply.
The undertakers are not liable in damages or otherwise if they refuse to supply water for a purpose prohibited under this section.
