These include investments needed to comply with EU regulation for water supply, wastewater collection and treatment, and flood protection. As part of the research, new data was produced on current levels of expenditure for water supply, sanitation and flood protection, as well as on projected needs. It supported a comparison across member states and substantiated tailored policy discussions in selected countries and at European level. This report captures the rationale for the research, the main quantitative outcomes and the policy issues and recommendations that derived from this two-year co-operation. Lessons from Europe outlined in this report can inspire similar research and policy discussions in other parts of the world.OECD studies on water.Water-supplyGovernment policyEuropean Union countriesEnvironmental EngineeringTechnology & EngineeringWater-supplyGovernment policy333.910094MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825672703321Financing water supply, sanitation and flood protection3996659UNINA
