Our response

There is a relevant provision under the Sustainable Drainage (Approval and Adoption Procedure) (Wales) Regulations 2018, specifically Regulation - 9 Single property exception - which stipulates:

For the purposes of paragraph 18(1) or (2) of Schedule 3 a drainage system or any part of a drainage system is to be treated as designed only to provide drainage for a single property if it is designed to provide drainage for any buildings or other structures that, following completion of the construction work, will be owned, managed or controlled by—

          (a) a single person, or
          (b) two or more persons together.
