Business Contact Details (Licensee)

The Regulations stipulate that a "building owner" (i.e. the ratepayer) is ultimately responsible for the effective operation and maintenance of HRMWS on the premises. However, under the Public Health Act 2011, the following definitions apply:

  • Owner: in relation to premises, including an "occupier" of premises.

  • Occupier: in relation to premises, means a person who has, or is entitled to, posession or control of the premises and includes a person who is in charge of the premises.

NOTE: Licensee, in relation to an HRMWS, is who is deemed responsible for the systems. Generally, this will be either to owner, or the occupier when the owner is a different entity.
