Minister for Water, Tanya Plibersek, has signalled that the Labor government may extend the 2024 deadline for delivering 450 gigalitres of water back into the Murray-Darling Basin after having recently labelled the target as “challenging.”
Speaking on Sky News on July 28, Plibersek blamed the Coalition for abandoning the targets while in office, saying that the Coalition had only returned two gigalitres during the decade they were in government.
