Audit Report: Warning Bell for Water Management

The Audit Office has prepared a Special Report examining the management of water resources in Cyprus. The issue of water adequacy remains a chronic challenge for the country due to natural geographical and climatic peculiarities, as well as the intensifying effects of climate change. Despite measures taken over time, existing policies and infrastructure have limited efficiency and significant room for improvement. The report identifies existing problems, identifies weaknesses and proposes specific interventions, focusing, among other things, on the need to update relevant assessments, improve efficiency and shape a more effective pricing policy to ensure the sustainable use of this valuable natural resource.
