This Act, consisting of seven Parts, provides for water efficiency labelling and the making of water efficiency standards. The objects of this Act are: to adopt in this State a uniform Australian approach to the regulation of water efficiency labelling and standards; to help ensure that the Commonwealth Act and the applied law of this State are administered on a uniform basis by the Commonwealth; to apply to Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Act 2005 (Cwlth) as a law of this State. It is Parliament’s intention that this Act form a part of a cooperative scheme between the Commonwealth and the States to provide for national water efficiency labelling and standards (WELS).
