Martsin stated that the amount and quality of available water should be calculated in relation to the volume and quantity of water used in drinking, agriculture and industry. He called for the determination of priorities, the establishment of a reliable database for Iraq's water resources, and the strengthening of oversight mechanisms for the protection of water resources.
