It's not just the safety issue around water. It is also the unfairness about where we live in New Zealand as to how safe our water will be and how much we will pay towards the services. There's another article in Newsroom that talks about reinventing the wheel 67 times. It's simply not efficient and it's not fair. The average New Zealand property paid $960 for water and waste water services in the 2020-21 fiscal year, but the highest charge was $2,237. The same goes for the waste-water component. The highest regional waste-water charge was $1,205; the lowest was $140. So there is a massive disparity there. It's just not fair to be expecting different people to pay different amounts towards the same services.
