Nomura Institute collaborates with Qld govt but gets confused ...

Thinks recycled water is not for drinking.

Reuse, recycled and rain water: Rain and recycled water can be positioned between drinking water and wastewater, and refers to rain water and water that has been treated to some degree but is not suitable for drinking. Such water can be used for purposes that can utilize non-potable water such as watering, washing cars, etc.
