I have a further question for the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage. When it comes to measuring water quality, is account taken of upstream levels versus downstream levels? I am asking that for the purpose of making a distinction between farms where excess run-off drains into watercourses and others that are compliant. A blanket response to the actions of a few has the potential to penalise those who are compliant.
