Event Date 30 Aug 2024
As water is an essential resource, it is perhaps unsurprising that concepts of equity, fairness, and justice widely feature in Australian water laws. However, after a close examination, it’s clear the meaning and use of equity concepts vary not just across jurisdictions but even within different provisions in a single piece of legislation. Water, Law & Concepts of Equity (Rebecca Nelson, Genevieve Walsh, L.M. Shirley and Rod Marsh) is an interesting examination of state and Commonwealth law in water-related legislation. It provides a well laid out snapshot at both a state and federal level, making it a useful resource across the Basin. Find out more here.
