IPART undertakes an annual audit of Sydney Water’s compliance with its operating licence. The 2018 audit was the third audit under the current 2015-2020 operating licence.
We audit Sydney Water’s compliance with its operating licence as required by the Sydney Water Act 1994. We sought stakeholder views on Sydney Water’s performance during the 2018 period (1 July 2017 to 30 June 2018).
IPART initiates the operational audits annually. We sought stakeholder input into Sydney Water’s overall compliance with its licence to determine the audit scope.
Our audit interviews were held in September 2018.
We provided the audit report to the Minister for Energy and Utilities in December 2018.
Our next audit of Sydney Water's operating licence will commence in mid-2019.
