The Murray–Darling Basin is the largest and most complex river system in Australia. The Basin Plan is a major reform agenda, agreed by the Australian Government and the governments of New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria and the Australian Capital Territory. The Plan is intended to ensure that the shared water resources of the Basin are managed and used sustainably, in the national interest.

The 2020 Basin Plan Evaluation Report
The Basin Plan Evaluation is an opportunity to assess Basin Plan implementation and identify areas for improvement. The report presents the Evaluation findings and recommendations on the effectiveness of the Basin Plan and how it can be improved in order to protect social, economic, First Nations cultural and environmental values across the Murray–Darling Basin. This report was updated on 29 January to correct the following errors: Figure 6 (p21) – graphic contains data for whole of Australia instead of the Murray–Darling Basin; Figure 7 (p21) – graphic presents median flows instead of mean (average) flows; Figure 29 (p75) – graphic includes data related to number of agricultural businesses irrigating. These figures have been revised and updated in this current version of the document. |
