Status
The term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section. A version of a provision is prospective either:
- where the provision (Part, Chapter or section) has never come into force or;
- where the text of the provision is subject to change, but no date has yet been appointed by the appropriate person or body for those changes to come into force.
Commencement Orders listed in the ‘Changes to Legislation’ box as not yet applied may bring this prospective version into force.
Changes to legislation:
Water Act 2014, Paragraph 4 is up to date with all changes known to be in force on or before 17 February 2025. There are changes that may be brought into force at a future date. Changes that have been made appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.![Help about Changes to Legislation](/images/chrome/helpIcon.gif)
