# Water Act 2003, Paragraph 9


Where a person employed in the civil service of the state becomes an employee of the Council under a transfer scheme, his period of employment in that service counts as a period of employment with the Council for the purposes of the Employment Rights Act 1996 (c. 18) (and the change of employer does not break the continuity of the period of employment for those purposes).
