The outlet aperture configured to be in fluid communication with the interior of the fitting body when the fitting body is located on the connector, the connector further comprising a control valve arrangement including a valve member (108, figure 5). The valve member is movable in response to water pressure and/or water flow from a first position in which water flow from the outlet aperture is permitted to a second position in which water flow through outlet aperture is prevented. Wherein in the first position the valve member is located entirely within the conduit and in the second position at least a part of the valve member extends beyond the outlet aperture.
