Abstract

This Law regulates the entire institutional frame work and governance principles for the elaboration of necessary provision related to general water services, including issues on the price of water services, on the legal position and sustainable business of water service providers, on the functioning of the Water Services Council and other issues regarding the water services on the territory of the Republic of Croatia.
