Autonomous Citizen Water Comptroller's Office is preparing its own Water Law proposal for Mexico City

The newly created Autonomous Citizen Water Comptroller's Office is preparing its own Water Law proposal for Mexico City. “Elena Burns, of the Center for Sustainability Centli, said that the drafting of the proposed law is a process that started in 2012, when a reform of Article 4 of the Constitution put a lock on the privatization of the liquid, which is not reflected in local regulations. ‘This reform removed the idea of water as an object of sale, as privatizable, and establishes equitable and sustainable access to water, with citizen participation,’ said Burns.”
