I want to highlight what this bill will do. It provides clear leadership for drinking-water regulation through a central regulator, Taumata Arowai; it strengthens compliance, monitoring, and enforcement of drinking-water regulation; and it ensures there is a multi-barrier protection of drinking-water supplies, which is an international best practice and is the core of the Havelock North inquiry's recommendations. It requires all drinking-water suppliers, other than domestic self-suppliers, to be part of the regulatory system and provide safe drinking water on a consistent basis. It ensures source waters are properly protected and monitored. It provides measures that will significantly improve the transparency and public reporting around the environmental impact of waste-water and stormwater systems. It provides mechanisms that enable the regulation of drinking water to be proportionate to the scale, complexity, and risk profile of each drinking-water supply. Finally, it requires all those who have functions, duties, and powers under the bill to give effect to te mana o te wai in a way that is consistent with the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management.
