Podcast: What the Three Waters reforms will mean for councils
Dr Oliver Hartwich
Dr Eric Crampton
28 October, 2021
The Government has announced they will confiscate councils’ three water assets, despite widespread opposition from mayors, councillors, and ratepayers.
Ben Craven sits down with Oliver Hartwich, Matt Burgess and Eric Crampton to discuss what the proposals will mean for councils; the winners and losers; and why centralised control of water assets is not the answer to local water issues.
