80  Simplified outline  (1) This section provides a simplified outline of this Subdivision.  (2) When a change to the Basin Plan would result in a change in the reliability of the water allocations in relation to the water resources of a water resource plan area, the Basin Plan identifies the change and may also specify the Commonwealth’s share (if any) of that change in reliability. Note 1: The Commonwealth’s share is worked out in accordance with the provisions of the National Water Initiative. The Initiative provides that the Commonwealth’s share includes changes attributable to changes in Commonwealth Government policy and, for changes that occur on or after 1 January 2015, may also include some part of changes attributable to improvements in knowledge about the environmentally sustainable level of take for the water resources of a water resource plan area. Note 2: See section 81.  (3) The Commonwealth:  (a) endeavours to manage the impact of the Commonwealth’s share of the potential change in reliability on the holders of water access entitlements; and  (b) may take steps to ensure that the holders of water access entitlements do not suffer a change in the reliability of their water allocations as a result of the Commonwealth’s share of the potential change. Note: See section 82.  (4) If, despite the Commonwealth’s efforts, there is a change in the reliability of the water allocations of a holder of a water access entitlement and the change is reasonably attributable to the Commonwealth’s share of the change in reliability, the holder may be entitled to a payment under section 83.
