Submission on the ‘Future National Water Agreement’ Discussion Paper
A Renewed Agreement must be informed by experiences under the existing NWI, including past
performance. While we support a Renewed Agreement that contains ambitious objectives, it is
essential that it builds upon the NWI. In particular, a Renewed Agreement must require the
continuation and in some instances implementation of the original NWI commitments. Areas that
can and should be carried through and strengthened in a Renewed Agreement, as discussed
further in this submission and previous related EDO submissions.
