Note too that Arthur Sinodonis (now a NSW Senator) was once Chairman of the Obeid family vehicle Australian Water Holdings Ltd.
Royal Commission report 700 odd pages of pdf IMHO very legalistic and a festival for the Wentworth Group and the IPCC. Whole aim seems to be to boost environmental flows using any argument available.
