The Basin Plan Review

Basin Plan Review is a comprehensive evaluation of the Murray–Darling Basin Plan, which is the world-leading reform for Australia's Murray–Darling Basin water management system. The review, scheduled for 2026, aims to determine how to strengthen the plan and adapt it to future challenges like climate change, while also increasing the involvement of First Nations people and addressing sustainable water limits and regulatory design.
