Self-lay regime
Water Bill, Glossary: water terms, published by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs in November 2013, suggests that the self-lay regime: ‘…permits a developer to install (or use a contractor to install) the pipework for a new water main or sewer which will be subsequently adopted by the relevant undertaker. Adoption of the pipework is subject to the developer meeting conditions, including build requirements, previously agreed between the developer and undertaker.’
