Pro­fes­sor of Wa­ter Re­sources Man­age­ment and In­fra­struc­ture at the Roy­al Agri­cul­tur­al Uni­ver­si­ty (RAU), Unit­ed King­dom, Ki­ran To­ta-Ma­haraj be­lieves that the new Gov­ern­ment’s plan to get rid of the for­mer ad­min­is­tra­tion’s plan for Wa­ter and Sew­er­age Au­thor­i­ty (WASA) is a “bold step.”

Ac­cord­ing to a WASA me­dia re­lease in 2022, the plan was an­chored on three pil­lars: or­gan­i­sa­tion­al trans­for­ma­tion, net­work op­ti­mi­sa­tion and an ex­pan­sion of the wa­ter sup­ply.

The Min­is­ter of Pub­lic Util­i­ties, Bar­ry Padarath has made it clear that the Gov­ern­ment will get rid of the for­mer Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment’s (PNM) trans­for­ma­tion plan for the WASA.
