Resumen

This Act amends the principal Act by inserting a new Part (III), entitled ”Agreement or contract for the provision, development, management and maintenance of water supply within area of concession”. It provides for a contract or agreement that may be concluded by the Minister with any legal entity for purposes of granting that entity the sole concession for the provision, development, management and maintenance of water supply to the public within the area of concession as defined in this Part. The agreement or contract requires approval of the Council of Ministers. The Minister shall, by Order, transfer the Government water supply in the area to the concessionaire. Any person other than the Concessionaire who provides, supplies or manages public water supply within the area of concession shall be guilty of an offence. It shall be the duty of the Concessionaire in the area of concession to provide, develop, manage and maintain an efficient supply of water and distribute water as described in section 26. Section 27 defines the powers of the concessionaire. This Part further prohibits the damaging of works, the wasting or diverting of water and provides for regulation making powers of the Minister.
