44—Duty of consumer to keep pipes and fittings within his premises in
repair
Every person supplied with water by the Corporation shall keep such part of
the communication pipe, and the stopcock, drains, and other works and fittings
as shall be within his own premises, in good repair, so as effectually to
prevent the water from running to waste, or the collection therein of
unwholesome matter. In case any person neglects to keep the same in good
repair, the Corporation may, with the approval of the Minister, cut off the
pipe, or turn off the water from the premises of such person, until such
stopcock or other works or fittings shall be provided or repaired, as the case
may require.
