Conditions requested: No construction of the proposed dwellings shall commence until such time as the Isle of Man Water Authority gives notice in writing to the Committee that the Authority will within six months of the date of such notice have the capacity to provide to the proposed dwellings a supply of wholesome water sufficient for the domestic purposes of the proposed dwellings.
