The entire board of Victoria's largest rural water authority, Goulburn
Murray Water, has resigned.

The Water Minister, Peter Walsh, wrote to the board earlier this week,
demanding explanations about its financial management and recent
senior staff departures.

The board had until today to respond, and all seven directors have now
stood down, including the chairman Stephen Mills.

Mr Walsh says two interim directors will be appointed and they will
work with the acting managing director, to oversee the organisation.

"It's very important that there's stability in the organisation for
the good of both the staff and for the customers," he said.

"We'll put two people in there who can help steady the ship and steer
it until there is a new board there."
