Qld Labor government votes against public disclosure of recycled water problems ...

Votes down State Opposition proposal to require public disclosure of problems which may occur with recycled water:

‘14A Report about supply of drinking water

‘(1) This section applies if the regulator becomes aware, or reasonably believes, that the quality of drinking water supplied by an entity is not safe for human consumption or is not consistent with the water quality criteria for drinking water.

‘(2) The regulator must, as soon as practicable, publish a report about the drinking water, including details of any inconsistency with the water quality criteria for drinking water, in a newspaper circulating generally in the State.’.

See - Hansard - 15 May 2008 - Page 1752.

Looks like the Bligh government plans to sweep any problems under the carpet ...
