Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen (Infrastructure and the Environment), together with the authorities involved and NGOs, yesterday signed an ambitious declaration on improving water quality in the Netherlands.
Minister Schultz: ‘Dutch drinking water can effortlessly compete with bottled mineral water sold in supermarkets. This is actually a technological feat which we should be proud of. We should not forget that good quality fresh water is anything but a given. We have to work hard for clean water every day. I believe it is good step to be working on water quality with all the parties involved.’
