Jo Townsend

Delegate of the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Regulator

03 January 2013

Overview

The Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Act 2005 (the WELS Act) was enacted to address the problem of water wastage through inefficient water-using products, and to encourage consumers and industry to adopt more water-efficient products. This Act was passed by the Parliament of Australia, with the policy objective of improving water efficiency across the nation by setting standards and labels for water-using products. The legislation facilitates the registration of water-efficient products by the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards (WELS) Regulator, ensuring that only products that meet certain efficiency criteria are allowed to carry the WELS label. This measure aims to provide consumers with clear and reliable information on the water efficiency of products, thereby encouraging more sustainable water use practices.

Scope and Application

The Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Act 2005 (WELS Act) applies to water-using products sold in Australia, ensuring these products meet certain water efficiency standards. This Act is a Commonwealth legislation that imposes requirements on manufacturers, importers, and retailers of water-using products, including taps, showers, and clothes washing machines. The Act mandates that these products must be labelled with a Water Efficiency Label (WEL) that indicates their water efficiency rating, thereby allowing consumers to make informed choices about water-efficient products. The scope of the Act encompasses a wide range of products, but it does not apply to all types of water-using devices, with specific exclusions outlined in the Act. The application of the WELS Act is further extended through subordinate instruments, which detail the specific water efficiency standards and rating criteria for different product categories. The Act does not apply to products that are not sold in Australia or to those that do not fall within the defined product categories subject to water efficiency labelling.

Key Provisions

The Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards Act 2005 (WELS Act) sets out the legislative framework for the registration and labelling of water-efficient products in Australia. Section 28(1) of the Act mandates the registration of water-efficient products, which must meet the criteria outlined in the Australian/New Zealand Standard 6400:2005 (subsections 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7). The products must be assessed for their water efficiency and labelled appropriately. This notice by Josephine Townsend, the Assistant Director of the Water Efficiency Labelling and Standards, confirms the registration of various water-efficient products by different brands under the WELS Act. The registered products include tap and tap outlet sets, toilet suites, and clothes washing machines. Each product is assigned a unique registration number and is subject to specific conditions as outlined in the standard. The Act imposes several obligations on the parties or entities it governs. Manufacturers and importers of water-efficient products are required to ensure that their products meet the water efficiency standards set by the WELS Act and the accompanying Australian/New Zealand Standard 6400:2005. They must label their products accurately with the appropriate water efficiency rating and other relevant information. Compliance with these obligations is necessary to maintain the integrity of the water efficiency labelling scheme and to provide consumers with reliable information about the water efficiency of the products they purchase. Breaching the requirements of the WELS Act can lead to various civil and criminal consequences. Under the Act, individuals or entities found guilty of contravening the requirements for water efficiency labelling and standards may be subject to penalties. The maximum penalty for contravening a provision of the Act can be significant, depending on the nature and severity of the breach. For example, in the case of corporations, the maximum penalty can be up to several hundred thousand Australian dollars. Additionally, individuals who are officers of the corporation and are involved in the management or decision-making processes that lead to the contravention may also face personal penalties. These provisions underscore the importance of compliance with the Act and the potential legal ramifications of non-compliance.
