Our starting approach for the accord was to say, let's look at the five drainage basins, and provinces would decide what is the appropriate level of drainage basin to deal with in their jurisdictions to meet their water management needs, because there are needs to move water between subbasins, small-scale basins, for hydroelectric and irrigation purposes.

If you say all of this can be within the same drainage basin, you have, in effect, erased the border on a policy level in respect of the management of that resource—not to say that the integrity of drainage basins is not important.

2. Points out that water is a vital resource that needs to be protected and managed efficiently in the EU; takes the view that, given that drainage basins are mostly on the territory of several Member States, joint investment is needed for water management;

1. Recognises that extreme climate phenomena together with the expected rise in sea-levels and higher variations of rainfall calls for new projects and adaptation measures for their implementation, especially in respect of agriculture and the management of river and drainage basins, even within the existing infrastructure systems which will generate high operational costs, but are nevertheless affordable as they are much lower than the costs of inaction over the medium to long term; calls, however, for the scientific basis for such measures to fulfil the criteria resulting from climate science, with adequate peer re ...[+++]view and assessment processes and constant updating of research findings in a transparent manner; calls on the Commission and the Member States to provide, in a dedicated national action plan, information on those costs and their distribution;
