Government Board, who may institute Inquiry if they think fit, and must hear
the County Council, the Borough Council, and the Company, and the Board
may then confirm or disallow any Regulation, repeal or alteration, one month's
notice in writing and by advertisement having been given of the Public
Inquiry. A printed copy of the Regulations must be kept at the office of the
County Council, the Borough Council, and the Company for public perusal.
The Regulations in force at the present time were made in 1872, but the
Water Companies deposited new Regulations recently, at the commencement
of 1901, and a Public Inquiry was held by the Local Government Board,
when the proposed new Regulations were withdrawn.
