Review and revocation of order

(1)

The Scottish Ministers may review a water shortage order at any time.

(2)

Following such a review, the Scottish Ministers may revoke the order wholly or partly.

(3)

Where the Scottish Ministers revoke the order (whether wholly or partly), Scottish Water must publish notice of that fact—

(a)

in at least one newspaper circulating in the area to which the order relates,

(b)

on its website, and

(c)

in such other manner as it thinks fit.

(4)

Where the revocation of the order (whether wholly or partly) removes a restriction or prohibition on the abstraction of water by any person, the Scottish Ministers must give the person notice of the revocation.
