Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The government is saying they will not charge for water and sewer until April, 1994. The department's assessment on this issue is preliminary at this point. The thinking of the department is that once user-pay becomes a reality, tenants would have to pay for water and sewage and the amount of water they consume. The thinking at this point is that the costs will go down. The hamlets, villages and municipalities will deliver less water to the houses when the consumers start paying for their own bills. Thank you.
