Sustainable Diversion Limit Accounting and Reporting Framework document

The Sustainable Diversion Limit (SDL) Accounting and Reporting Framework 2025 summarises the key accounting concepts and outlines the roles and responsibilities in assessment of SDL compliance.

These roles and responsibilities are shared between:  

  • Basin state and territory governments
  • the MDBA  
  • the Inspector-General of Water Compliance  
  • other Commonwealth agencies.

The SDL Accounting and Reporting Framework outlines the approach the MDBA takes when reporting on sustainable diversion limits.

Managing water is a shared responsibility because water is a shared resource. Basin state governments and the Australian Government have a key role in ensuring water laws are adhered to.
