The Water Act 2014 introduced a number of measures to reform the competitive markets in the water sector in England and Wales including reforming the water supply licensing regime and the introduction of a sewerage licensing scheme. It also provides the opportunity for undertakers to exit the non-household market, meaning they would not be required to provide retail water and/or sewerage services to their non-household customer base, but will retain their wholesale functions. These Regulations retain in Part 2 the existing provisions in relation to water and sewerage undertakers whose areas are wholly or mainly in Wales and insert a new Part 3 that applies to water and sewerage undertakers whose areas are wholly or mainly in England and water supply licensees who supply water, and sewerage licensees who provide sewerage services, under a retail authorisation. The service standards set out in Part 3 replicate the current service standards which will remain in Part 2, modified to reflect the division of responsibilities between providers of retail services and wholesalers.
