"South Australian irrigators who access water through irrigation trusts have greater flexibility to better manage their businesses under new legislation to take effect from today. The new Irrigation Act 2009 and the Renmark Irrigation Trust Act 2009 were recently passed in State Parliament and have been gazetted today. Minister for the River Murray Karlene Maywald says the new legislation continues South Australia’s commitment to water reform and ensures there are no restrictions to the permanent trade of water."
