Desalination payments monitoring study 2012
- Project started
- Project completed
Overview
The Victorian Government asked us to verify that customers were repaid certain amounts in relation to the construction of a desalination plant.
We released a paper, Opinion Report - Return of Additional Desalination Payments, that outlined whether an additional return of desalination funds to customers was appropriate (on top of those being returned via the 2012-13 price freeze).
We also released quarterly progress reports and an independent audit report that provided an update on the return of desalination funds by businesses, covering the period from July to September 2013. The return of the small amount of funds still to be returned was addressed in the 2013-14 Water Performance Report.
