Local Water Done Well

Local Water Done Well is the Sixth National Government's policy to address New Zealand's water infrastructural challenges. It is the successor to the previous Sixth Labour Government's controversial Three Waters programme. The policy focuses on local ownership and decision-making over the delivery of water services while meeting economic, environmental and water quality regulatory requirements.

Local Water Done Well consists of three laws repealing the previous Three Waters legislation; establishing the framework and preliminary arrangements for the new water services system; and establishing the endurance settings of the water services system. The repeal legislation passed on 14 February 2024 while a legislation establishing the framework of the council-owned new water services system passed into law on 28 August 2024.
