| English term or phrase: poacher and a gamekeeper | | If both resource management and development functions are in the hands of the same institution, there is no way to assess performance because the institution is at the same time a “poacher and a gamekeeper,” (i.e. the controlled and the controller, responsible for supervising its own activities). Thus, there is little or no institutional transparency and, in principle, it is difficult to ascertain whether water resources are developed and used in a sustainable manner, and whether the water services rendered to the end users are satisfactory. Consequently, it is indispensable that a distinction be drawn - and maintained - between management and development functions. |
