However, section 38 does not apply to any water consumption charge incurred after 31 December 1999.

The Residential Parks Regulation 1999 prescribes the standards for water metering for the purposes of section 38 of the Act. The object of this Regulation is to prescribe those standards for the purposes of section 39 of the Act.

This Regulation is made under the Residential Parks Act 1998, including sections 39 and 155 (the general regulation-making power).
