So said the chair
• Quite a few countries will attain targets of developing integrated water resources management by 2005 but many require further assistance
• Many countries are on track to halve the population without access to safe drinking water by 2015 but progress is uneven and many countries may fail to meet the goal
• Considerable number of countries are not on track of halving the proportion of people without access to basic sanitation by 2015, unless additional resources are raised.
• Ministers welcomed the active participation of major groups throughout the session. They suggested that the example be followed in subsequent review sessions of the Commission.
• Global sustainable development is a shared responsibility. Each country is responsible for its own progress in implementing the millennium development goals and for fulfiling the Johannesburg Plan of Implementation's targets and commitments.
• Further development and implementation of the ecosystems approach was recognised as one of several options that should be promoted, depending on priorities and circumstances.
