New Section 17A reads:
17A Water on common property
(1) Any rainwater or other water that falls, occurs or flows on the common property (otherwise than in a waterway or a bore) is taken to be part of the common property.
(2) For the purposes of section 8(4)(c) of the Water Act 1989 , an owners corporation is the occupier of land to the extent that the land is common property.
(3) In this section, waterway and bore have the same meanings as in section 3(1) of the Water Act 1989
Curious as to thoughts about what this means in practice - particularly as regards to S16 of the Water Act
