Madam Speaker, the Minister seems to be implying that there is some doubt about whether municipalities could collect from water and sewage users. If there is doubt about that fact, wouldn't the reasonable thing be to announce the proposed changes, provide information to the municipalities and give a much longer lead time for the implementation of that policy so all these questions can be answered and dealt with well in advance of the target date for implementation of the policy? Thank you.
