Contrary to popular belief, it has nothing to do with the latitude or the Coriolis effect.
Toilets and sinks drain in the directions they do because of the way water is directed into them or pulled from them.
The Coriolis effect is the reason why hurricanes rotate clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere, and counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. But you need a very large amount of moving air and water for it to take effect.

Firstly check with the Water Authority/Local Authority that the drain is not a sewer shown on the map of sewers. If it is in fact a drain it should only serve one property, however. If it is no then it might be a private sewer that serves more than one property. If it only serves one property it is a drain and in this case and in the case of it being a private sewer it will need to be protected against damage from floor loads. I suggest you ask the advice of your Building Control Deapartment at your local Council as bot both protective measure and accessibility measures may be required.
