Regulation 24 Revocation and modification of authorisations
Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), the Secretary of State may at any time modify or revoke an authorisation under regulation 20.
The Secretary of State shall not revoke or modify an authorisation under regulation 20 without giving at least six months' notice in writing of his intention to do so to—
the water undertaker to which the authorisation relates;
the appropriate local authority;
the appropriate health authority; and
the relevant customer services committee,
but he may revoke or modify an authorisation without notice if it appears to him that immediate revocation or modification is required in the interests of public health.
A water undertaker on whose application a departure has been authorised under this Part shall notify the Secretary of State as soon as the circumstances which gave rise to the application cease to exist; and the Secretary of State shall thereupon revoke the authorisation without the need for prior notice.
