Why this petition matters

Started by Gaye Cameron

Our Farmers & Rural Communities are being treated like 3rd world people - Enough IS Enough

I stand with my fellow Australians who work hard to provide food for us every day. This is my bit to save an icon of our Nation.

The Liberal / National Party Marriage is destroying our hard working farming families and destroying prestine old red gum forests & surrounding environment.  Water is for LIFE not a COMMODITY.

To demand a Royal Commission to be called to investigate the operations and transactions of the Murray Darling Basin Authority, the execution of the Murray Darling Basin Plan, and the Federal Water Act 2007 in the allocations, monetary transactions of water licences/permits across States & Territories for which it operates under. Terms of Reference need to include the viability of the Murray Darling Basin Authority, its structure, and de-regulation of water permits and water trading scheme.

Petition Request of the House of Representatives

We therefore ask the House to call for a Royal Commission to investigate the operations and transactions of the Murray Darling Basin Authority, the execution of the Murray Darling Basin Plan, and the Federal Water Act 2007 in the allocations, monetary transactions of water licences/permits across States & Territories for which it operates under.
