My question is directed to the Minister representing the Minister for Agriculture and Water Resources. South Australians deserve reliable information about the sustainability of the Murray-Darling system. The Murray-Darling Basin Authority has recently commissioned the University of Melbourne to deliver a report into return flows. Will the University of Melbourne collect any new primary data on return flows, for instance through remote sensing, or will the research rely largely on the review of old data?
