Australia is one of the driest continents on Earth and we fight a constant battle to maintain the balance between water supply and demand. As a result, water has become one of the most significant legal and policy issues in the country.
Reforms across all Australian jurisdictions are ongoing and will continue to develop over time bringing critical changes to industry regulation, infrastructure, water rights, trading and water access.
Clayton Utz’ specialist national water team can help you navigate the reforms and understand the challenges and opportunities they present, to help achieve your commercial objectives. Our experience includes advising a range of government and private organisations in some of Australia’s largest and most significant water-related transactions. We advise on issues such as infrastructure projects and access, regulatory reform, law and policy changes, water pricing and water trading.
This depth of experience allows us to anticipate trends and key issues, and to provide innovative and effective commercial advice in relation to all aspects of water.
