Hon NANAIA MAHUTA: I can guarantee that the benefits of this reform approach are intended to reach every household, in every community across the country. It is a compelling case for change, and those councils who have made premature decisions, in the absence of having the information, may want to pause and think again, because, at the end of the day, if households are faced with the prospect of paying a tripling, doubling, or even ten times the cost for their water services going forward into the future, that is not an acceptable position to be in.
