<p>A fourth local authority, Palmerston North City Council, has changed
its water network connection arrangements as the result of a <strong>Commerce
Commission</strong> project to ensure all local authorities are aware of and
comply with the Commerce Act. The Commission began focusing on local authorities
last year because it was concerned most has poor knowledge of the Act and
some did not realise it applied to them. The project will continue with
investigations and education activity as long as is required.
