There are many issues around water and colleagues have raised a number of them. We will all benefit from moving to a better and more sustainable water infrastructure. The Government has made figures available that show that the State has been under-investing in water services for years, and we all agree with that. Senator Leyden mentioned that nationally 18,000 or 19,000 people boil their drinking water every day. That is unsustainable.
