A new draft plan by the MDBA hasn’t prevented further criticism.

The authority published the new draft on Monday.

The authority says it supports “an adjustment mechanism” which could see the amount of water available for irrigation move between 2,400 and 3,200 gigalitres a year.

The previous target was 2,750 gigalitres – a figure Victoria and NSW argued was too high and SA thought was too low.

Victoria now says the new changes don’t go far enough .. the Greens are not satisfied either while the Weatherill government isn’t pulling back from threatened High Court action.

At federal level, Environment Minister Tony Burke says he wants more water returned to the Basin.
