Water Act 1989

The Registrar is not required to accept an electronic document for recording in the water register in respect of a water share unless—

the electronic document contains the information required by the Registrar and is in the form (if any) approved by the Registrar; and

the electronic document complies with the prescribed requirements (if any); and

the electronic document is lodged in the electronic lodgement network established under clause 1 in the manner required by the Registrar; and

any relevant certificate required under clause 9 is lodged in the electronic lodgement network; and

the parties to the electronic document have specified the person who is to be the responsible party under this Schedule (the responsible party) for the recording of the electronic document.

If the Registrar refuses to register an electronic document and the parties to the electronic document wish to proceed with the relevant recording in the water register, the Registrar may require the relevant documents to be executed and lodged for recording in a form other than an electronic communication.

The Registrar must publish notice in the Government Gazette of any information, form or manner of lodgement required by the Registrar under this clause.
