Statute overview

About this statute

The Regional State Administrative Agency oversees health protection in its area and evaluates municipal health supervision plans. Regionförvaltningsverket may grant a temporary exemption from certain quality requirements on application, if household water distribution cannot otherwise be arranged reasonably in the area and the exemption does not endanger human health. The municipal health protection authority must let the competent ELY Centre give its opinion on an application, and if it learns of a waterborne epidemic or suspected epidemic, it must investigate at once, take preventive measures, and inform the National Institute for Health and Welfare and the competent regional state administrative agency. The municipal health protection authority may obtain needed information from public and church authorities, and supervisory authorities must provide certain inspection and supervision data to the national health and social care supervision agency on request. Polisen och regionförvaltningsverket ska vid behov bistå den kommunala hälsoskyddsmyndigheten vid tillsynen över efterlevnaden av lagen och tillhörande föreskrifter.
