The Water Services Charges (Billing and Collection) (Scotland) Order 2010
Responsibility for water and sewerage services in Scotland rests with Scottish Water, established under the Water Industry (Scotland) Act 2002 (asp3). This Order provides, as regards the financial years 2010‑11 and 2011‑12, for each local authority in Scotland to be responsible for demanding and recovering charges payable in respect of water supply and sewerage services provided by Scottish Water to dwellings in the area of the local authority (other than charges for a supply of water taken by meter).
