There are people associated with the irrigation industry in the Macquarie who have either:
been lied to Or
are prepared to lie and say the Macquarie is a "closed system"

NSW Water Minister @melindapaveyMP was in the media saying
“14% of water actually comes from those Northern Rivers into the Darling”

That's why they're tributaries .. derr
Crazy claims & BS
