MP Fatima Yassine, a member of the movement’s team in the House of Representatives, asked a written question to Interior Minister Abdel Wafi Laftit, on the treatment of wastewater and the disinfection of the liquid in areas of water shortage.
The parliamentarian stated in her question: “Due to the importance of treated water to cover the needs of irrigation, industry and others, efforts are being made at the level of several territorial groups to eliminate dependence on drinking water for watering green spaces and some sports stadiums, via treatment plants.
MP Yassin continued: “Given the success of this experiment, in light of the water stress our country is experiencing, circulating it to large, medium and remote territorial groups that are suffering from shortages would help to rationalize and streamline the use of water on the one hand, and preserve the beauty and elegance of cities and the environment on the other hand.
The parliamentarian questioned the Minister of the Interior on the government’s plan to support local authorities in intensifying wastewater treatment plants through coordination between the interests of the ministerial sectors concerned (Interior, Equipment, Water, Finance) through the National Committee for Monitoring the Development of Wastewater. program.
She also asked about the efforts being made to accelerate the national programme for integrated disinfection of liquids and reuse of wastewater, particularly in regions that suffer greatly from water shortages, such as the Zagora region, as well as the awareness programme to be adopted on the importance of rationalising water consumption.
