G. Gavriel: Continued Procrastination and Delays in Water Problem Solutions

The President of the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture and Natural Resources, Giannakis Gavriel, expressed strong concern about the water situation in Cyprus, highlighting the delays in the implementation of desalination and reclaimed water utilization projects. He emphasized that these delays have serious consequences for the primary sector and farmers. Mr. Gavriel stated that mobile desalination units are delayed and that the utilization of reclaimed water remains problematic due to a lack of infrastructure. He advocated for a reassessment of water allocation to farmers and the provision of additional quantities, given the significant cuts that have already been imposed.
