Confusion reigns ...

As Toowoomba City Council bans the use of greywater recycling ...

see - Council bans greywater.

the NSW government promotes its use ...

see - Cash incentives to use less water.

and takes control over water tanks and greywater recycling away from local Councils.

see - Councils stripped of control.

Meanwhile, an innovative company promoting greywater recycling technology is frustrated at the lack of government support.

see - Laws hinder recycling technology.

It is interesting that Toowoomba City Council is out of step with the NSW government decision (what do they want the greywater to be used for?)

But how can people have confidence in government regulation where there is no consistency on recycling issues?
