West of the Divide, our wetlands and rivers are "hotspots" of biodiversity. Frogs, owls, possums, fish and waterbirds live and breed in these oases. And they provide valuable areas of pasture for cattle farming. But years of bad decisions have left our waterways critically short of water, and the communities and animals that depend on them are suffering.

All party members are welcome.
