Queensland data includes the allocation announcement in the supplemented system. The Queensland value does not include the allocations announced against the entitlements held by Toowoomba regional council within the Moreton Water Resource Plan area that is outside of the Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) region. Water is transferred from Cressbrook and Perseverance reservoirs directly into the Toowoomba regional council’s distribution network, which is not included in the MDB region. Therefore, these allocation announcements are not reported in the water accounting statements. See National Water Account 2010’s South East Queensland subaccount for more detail.
