17 Evaluation WEAKNESSES: The issue of the property models of 21 water management organizations (individual companies or the ones belonging to PWMC Vode Vojvodine or other). The obligation to future water management activities could be a setback for privatization model. The requirement for organizations which would protect the interests of stakeholders and participate in the annual water management planning.
