The aim of this project is to consider a range of options and present recommendations for improving the regulatory framework so it better supports and incentivises the co-ordinated planning, development and operation of new and existing water resources to deliver greatest public value across multiple sectors in addition to resilient public water supply.
Customer wants to understand how its frameworks and institutional arrangements might need to evolve to enable better co-ordination in the:
 Planning;
 Procurement
 Construction; and
 Operation of water resources.
The regional groups continue to make significant progress as they develop co-ordinated water resources plans, to meet the long-term water resources needs of customers and other industries.
