What happens next?Ka aha ināianei?

Two additional pieces of legislation needed to complete the reforms were introduced to Parliament in December 2022.

The Water Services Legislation Bill provides the new Water Services Entities with the legislative functions, responsibilities and powers to operate from July 2024.

The Water Services Economic Efficiency and Consumer Protection Bill establishes an economic regulation and consumer protection regime for Three Waters.
