Only if its a new house and yes it should connect to the toilet and laundry I believe, maybe diff in VIC.
we built in NSW 2 1/2 years ago, water is supposed to flow from the tank first (for entire house) then bring in town supply when the tank is empty.
When it was all hooked up, builder takes me to the tank/pump and says' flick this tap and that handle to get tank water, leave them as they are and town water flows stright through'. As soon as you turn on the tank you bypass town pressure and require the pump. Tank water is for beer, light styles like lagers, town supply works fine for most ales.
Around here people actually install water tanks on that setup so they can get decent pressure. Tap pressure is sub 100kpa
