Summary
"Improvements in access to safe drinking water and basic sanita&#x00AC%x;tion are critical elements in meeting the millennium develop&#x00AC%x;ment goals. The court assessed whether EU development assistance for drink&#x00AC%x;ing water supply and basic sanitation in six sub-Saharan coun&#x00AC%x;tries is leading to sustainable results. It concluded that in gen&#x00AC%x;eral, equipment had been installed and was in working order. However, fewer than half of the projects met beneficiaries' needs and results and benefits will not continue to flow in the medium and long term unless non-tariff revenue is ensured. The commission did not make good use of its management proce&#x00AC%x;dures to increase the likelihood that projects will bring lasting benefits" -- P. [4] of cover.
