Mount Camel irrigation pipeline


Mount Camel irrigation pipeline

Ms RYAN (Euroa) (12:35): I rise today to highlight the great efforts of a group of winemakers from Mount Camel who are working to develop a new irrigation pipeline to mitigate the effects of climate change. In February I was told by the Australian department of infrastructure that they were waiting for a recommendation from the Victorian Minister for Water in order to be able to progress that project and to fund the pipeline. It has been four months, and I fear that this project is still sitting on the minister’s desk.
