Lawrenny Water Trust
(1)  A licence under the Water Management Act 1999 is taken to have been conferred on the Lawrenny Water Trust authorising the Lawrenny Water Trust to take a volume of water from the River Ouse in accordance with Schedule 5 to this order.
(2)  In any year, the HEC is to make available to the Lawrenny Water Trust, under the licence taken to have been conferred under subclause (1) , the volume of water from the River Ouse specified in Schedule 5 to this order.
(3)  In making water available to the Lawrenny Water Trust in accordance with this clause, the HEC is obliged to do so only from the bed of the River Ouse.
(4)  The following conditions apply to the licence taken to have been conferred on the Lawrenny Water Trust under subclause (1) :
(a) that a maximum annual volume of 4 250 megalitres, of the water made available to the Lawrenny Water Trust under the licence, is to be used for irrigation of the land serviced by the Trust;
(b) that the rights to a maximum annual volume of 4 250 megalitres, of the water made available to the Lawrenny Water Trust under the licence, may be transferred from the Trust to other parties in accordance with Division 4 of Part 6 of the Water Management Act 1999 ;
(c) if the Lawrenny Water Trust transfers a right under paragraph (b) to another party, that the maximum amount of water that may be used for irrigation, under paragraph (a) , is reduced by the aggregate amount of water in respect of which rights have been transferred under paragraph (b) ;
(d) that a minimum annual volume of 15 000 megalitres, of the water made available to the Lawrenny Water Trust under the licence, is to be released into the River Derwent.
