SEQ recycled water - Anna Bligh writes to herself for election backflip excuse ...

Excerpt from Courier Mail:

Premier Anna Bligh today gave her strongest indication yet the Government could abandon its plan to add recycled water to the state's drinking water supply.

She told State Parliament she had written to the Queenland Water Commission seeking urgent advice on whether the 40 per cent trigger for recycled water should be retained.

She said: "It is clear that people believe recycled water is a good insurance policy in the event that our dam levels plummet to low levels, but it's also clear that people are increasingly uneasy about recycled water as a constant part of our water supply system."


See- Anna Bligh writes to herself.

QWC =  just another Qld government department = Qld Labor = Anna Bligh ...

Greenfield must be apoplectic. How will he explain Anna's backflip to the likes of Veolia?

Good article in The Australian newspaper today regarding the millions of dollars provided to the so called Independent Water
Commission from Veolia to the University of Queensland and thus to Prof. Greenfield. This probably had a lot to do with Anna Bligh's decision to seek further advice. She was so adamant that the water was safe before this information came out. This Govt must not be given the chance to do another backflip should they retain power at the next election. Just another Labor Govt that is on the nose. Wake up Queenslanders.
