Question 2 water supplies into one flat???

Some advice please...

There is 2 water supplies going into a little flat side by side ( one supplying that flat and the other supplying a flat 2 doors down - was a shop but being converted to flats )

I have bonded at the little flat but what about the pipe which goes up to ceiling , runs in void and down into other flat.

Now I realise I need to bond that at point of entry in the new flat, but what about where it actually enters the building and runs alongside the other water main?

Any help much appreciated

Just bond em, costs nothing...bond anything that cannot move and made out of copper/lead/iron.
Plus it confuses the supply in charge guy, he just ticks..ok
