A PSD project proposes the elimination of VAT for the first 5 cubic meters of water consumed monthly, thus reducing the utility bill.

The project submitted to the Senate by PSD parliamentarians aims to amend the Fiscal Code to eliminate the 11% VAT on the first 5 cubic meters of water per month for household consumers. This would lead to a reduction in the bill of approximately 11%. In the explanatory memorandum, the initiators emphasize that citizens bear excessive costs due to old networks and losses from them, and the water service should not become a source of profit. It is argued that investments in infrastructure must be made without affecting consumers.
