Enablers and barriers. States perceived NPA funding as an enabler in achieving the objectives of the NPA, despite the shifting policy context, increased scrutiny since 2017, and outcomes of the NPA mid-term review adding complexities to the reporting arrangements and the level of detail included in milestone assessments. Some stakeholders noted that the public scrutiny and heightened interest in progress of the Basin Plan following the Four Corners report catalysed action and aided in the achievement of NPA objectives. The States’ reported that their staff, including their science capabilities were a major enabler. Many States regarded good, open working relationships at the officer level to have been a key enabler of the NPA. However, lack of specification and clarity around the WRP development process and staff churn in State and Commonwealth agencies was seen as a barrier. We heard that there are no staff currently working within the NSW water agencies who were present at the inception of the NPA due to downsizing in the intervening years. Given that the NPA aimed to ensure that States had staff on board to manage the MDB reform process, this has been a barrier to implementation and leaves NSW at a significant disadvantage in achieving its objectives under the NPA. Notwithstanding the Northern Basin Review, we heard a perception that all Basin rivers were being treated as if they are hydrologically similar and this was described as a barrier. This related to perceived assumptions that the hydrological characteristics of the Xxxxxx River and the Southern Basin had been used in conceptualising and modelling all river systems within the MDB, while not applicable to the Northern Basin. For some States, other barriers include the way in which some dimensions of the reform require other States to deliver, or for the MDBA to progress certain aspects of the reforms. They identified that their agreement with the Commonwealth is contingent on other States and on specific activities within Commonwealth agencies. However, the complex nature of the intergovernmental arrangements in the MDB make it hard to be clear about how specific policy responsibilities are allocated, and the degree to which overall progress is being made on key dimensions of the reforms.
