The inquiry will be conducted by the Rural and Regional Services Transport Committee and will examine all reasonable options, including increased dam capacity, for additional water supplies for South East Queensland, including:

    a) the merits of all options, including the Queensland Government's proposed Traveston Crossing Dam as well as raising the Borumba Dam; and
