In 2008, the ERA undertook an inquiry on Bunbury and Busselton Water Boards’ tariffs. The ERA consulted with both water boards as part of this inquiry, but was not required to undertake public consultation.
This inquiry was not intended to be a major review of tariff structures, which would involve a comprehensive reassessment of the water boards’ costs, but was limited to providing advice on the level of tariffs for 2008/09 and the specific matters raised in the Terms of Reference.
The ERA final report was delivered to the Treasurer on 8 February 2008 and tabled in Parliament on 7 March 2008.
