Step 1: find some "experts" ...

An excerpt from the Courier Mail:

Experts to explain recycled water

20 December 2006

The Queensland Water Commission will establish an expert advisory panel to provide independent scientific advice on purified recycled water.

Commission chair Elizabeth Nosworthy made the announcement this morning at a special meeting hosted by Premier Peter Beattie in Brisbane to determine how to best manage the state's water woes in the next decade.

More than 100 business, government and community leaders attended the briefing, which featured presentations from water experts on the controversial issue of recycled water, as well as the effects of climate change on the southeast corner.

Ms Nosworthy said this morning that Professor Paul Greenfield from the University of Queensland would chair the new advisory committee, which would report directly to the commission.

The commission would pass on the findings to the public.

Toowoomba viewers must have had an intense sense of déjà vu. The only thing missing was his claim that he'd be happy to feed it to his 5 year old (she must be 6 by now).

And now an 'expert' panel is to convened - sounds like the Water Futures Advisory Panel.

No prizes for guessing who might end up on Beattie's 'expert panel'.

Did they not learn anything last time around ...
