Board committees 

Western Water has four Board Committees. Each committee operates under approved Terms of Reference and is chaired by a member of the Board.

The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities by reviewing all matters related to corporate finance, auditing functions, review of financial statements and accounting policies. The committee also considers compliance with legislation and other activities and procedures, including insurance and risk management.
