Summary

At its fifty-sixth session, the Sub-Commission, in its decision 2004/107, dated 9 August 2004, decided to request Special Rapporteur Mr. El Hadji Guissé to prepare a set of draft guidelines for the realization of the right to drinking water supply and sanitation and to submit them to it at its fifty-seventh session.

The draft guidelines contained in the present report are intended to assist government policymakers, international agencies and members of civil society working in the water and sanitation sector to implement the right to drinking water and sanitation. These draft guidelines highlight the main and most urgent components of the right to water and sanitation. They do not attempt to provide an exhaustive legal definition of the right to water and sanitation
