Wijziging van de Waterwet ten behoeve van subsidiëring uit het deltafonds van maatregelen en voorzieningen tegen wateroverlast

This Dutch bill amends the Water Act (Waterwet) so that measures and facilities against water nuisance, such as local flooding and excess rainwater, can be subsidised from the Delta Fund. The Delta Fund is the national fund that finances long-term water safety and freshwater supply in the Netherlands. The change clarifies the legal basis for using these funds for water nuisance protection. The main groups affected are national and local water authorities, municipalities, and water boards responsible for managing water systems. Residents and property owners in areas prone to water nuisance may also benefit from new subsidised measures. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
