I am advised that Wellington is the end of the regulated system, and that portion of the river—as the senator would know—includes the off-takes for Adelaide’s water supply. My advice is that it is the end of the easily regulated system. I am not sure if that is, in fact, a term. The point is, the off-takes to Adelaide are upstream of Wellington, as the senator would know.
