        <text id="20121130de5add1b422343a5a0000235">The <term>Fight for the Murray</term> campaign aims to build support for South Australia's position that the Basin Plan, in its current form, is unacceptable to the South Australian government as it does not meet the objectives of the Commonwealth <term>Water Act 2007</term> which is to return the river system to a sustainable level of health. The campaign seeks the support of concerned South Australians and the broader Australian community to put pressure on the Murray-Darling Basin Authority and the Commonwealth Government to deliver a Basin Plan that will give us a healthy river—for the benefit of all Australians.</text>
