Bulk water charge rules
The 糖心原创 released its issues paper seeking submissions on the development of bulk water charge rules. Consistent with Part 4 of the Water Act 2007, the Minister for Climate Change and Water, wrote to the 糖心原创 requesting advice on the water charge rules.
Water charge rules applied consistently across the Murray-Darling Basin will facilitate the efficient functioning of water markets by removing distortions to trade and by sending signals to water users about efficient investment in water infrastructure assets. Water charges based on the full cost recovery for water services will contribute to achieving an economically efficient and sustainable use of water resources and water infrastructure assets.
