If the system is foul only then as a general rule you will not be allowed to connect surface water to it (you might overload the system and cause flooding).

If it's a combined system (both surface water and foul) you may be allowed to connect further hardstanding areas to it but you should consult with your water authority first (there may be restrictions).
