WESTERN MOUNT LOFTY RANGES DRAFT WATER ALLOCATION PLAN

In reply to the Hon. J.A. DARLEY (5 May 2011).

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Public Sector Management, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister for Gambling): The Minister for Environment and Conservation has advised:

1. The validity of a Water Allocation Plan is determined by the Natural Resources Management Act 2004.

2. I am unaware of any parts of the National Water Initiative being ignored.

3. I have not released a draft plan. Draft plans are released by Natural Resources Management Boards for public consultation pursuant to the Natural Resources Management Act 2004.

4. The Western Mount Lofty Ranges draft Water Allocation Plan is yet to be submitted to me by the Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges Natural Resources Management Board.

5. The development of Water Allocation Plans is a matter for the Natural Resources Management Boards, which are comprised of community representatives.

6. No Water Allocation Plan has been submitted to me for endorsement in relation to the Western Mount Lofty Ranges.

7. No Water Allocation Plan has been provided to me for endorsement in relation to the Eastern Mount Lofty Ranges.
