How can the EU improve your supply of drinking water?


The EU wants to hear your views: how can the supply of drinking water in Europe be improved, to guarantee everyone affordable access to clean, safe water?
The public consultation covers areas including

  • water quality
  • the main threats to clean water
  • whether the public needs better information about drinking water.
It comes in response to the Right2Water campaign, a European Citizens' Initiative. These initiatives enable citizens to call on the EU to propose legislation on a particular issue. The EU must then state what action it intends to take. See full Press Release: http://ec.europa.eu/news/justice/140625_en.htm
