"It is not only important that we ministers meet to talk, to move forward, to share on the water and sanitation agenda. It is also very important to have the experts and the technicians who can help us to improve water legislation, on one side, the issue of financial mechanisms, on the other, and, thirdly, the integrated water resource management at the level of basins and the issue of governance. Governance associated with water is a pending issue."
