Audit reports provided
Number of plans audited:
2
Summary
We audited implementation of the following water management plans to ascertain whether the provisions of the plans are being given effect to, as required under Section 44 of the >Water Management Act 2000.
- Barwon-Darling Valley floodplain management plan 2017
- Gwydir Valley floodplain management plan 2016
While many provisions of all the above plans are being implemented, our audit concluded that on balance the provisions of these plans have not been given full effect to in accordance with the Act. The overarching consequence is that the objectives of the plans are unlikely to be achieved. The Minister for Water and audit agencies have responded to our audit recommendations (see below).
