In file No. 23/39114, the Kingdom Brokerage Foundation highlighted the need to empower citizens in their right to benefit from water and electricity networks, emphasizing that the administration cannot suspend the granting of this service vital on the condition of presenting a building permit or an approved design, if the citizen has a certificate of habitual residence in the property.
The facts date back to the fact that a citizen filed a complaint demanding that he be able to connect his house to the water and electricity networks, like the rest of the inhabitants of the region.
His request was accompanied by a certificate of residence issued by the competent administrative authorities indicating his use of the property as his habitual residence. However, the administration rejected the request on the grounds that the citizen had not presented a building permit, an approved construction project or documents proving his ownership of the property.
In its deliberations, the Al-Waseet Foundation considered that the recognition by the administration of the habitual residence of the citizen in the house to be linked, and the absence of any conflict concerning its possession or the legality of its presence, obliges it to interact positively with their request. .
The Foundation stressed that the primary objective is to enable the citizen to have adequate housing and a decent life, which requires the provision of basic services such as water and electricity, regardless of some unavailable documents.
