Our work plans seek to ensure water is managed in accordance with the rules set by the Basin Plan and the Water Act 2007. Our workplan enables us to report the facts about compliance levels to the community.
The Inspector-General has a proactive approach to address the risks in water compliance. This includes focusing its work on areas where there are known concerns about water management.
As an independent regulator, the Inspector-General has discretion in performing compliance and enforcement functions. The Inspector-General may use powers and choose to change priorities beyond those published in the work plan.
