Water prices next year, according to announcements, will be higher due to the increase in employees' wages, which will be included in the regularly allowed cost.
This is confirmed by the recent warning of the Podgorica waterworks, that if the price list is not changed by November 12, the prices will be lower, which would threaten the company's liquidity.
It was heard at the Parliamentary Committee for Tourism, Agriculture and Spatial Planning that considered the Report on Communal Activities in 2023 that many water utilities violate the law and do not apply the prices established by law.
It was also pointed out that investments in the water supply network will require hundreds of millions of euros, which the municipalities have no where to pay for.
