A review was conducted by the department which commenced in 2019 and was published in September 2020 under the previous Liberal government. Recommendation 3 of that review is wideranging covering a broad range of elements relating to water prices. The government is progressing the elements of these recommendations in a number of ways. The SA Water regulatory determination process currently underway (RD24) is the primary mechanism to address water pricing for SA Water. The government is working with SA Water and the economic regulator (the Essential Services Commission of South Australia) to ensure fit for purpose investments are made by SA Water to ensure affordable water security for customers.
