Remunicipalisation commonly refers to the return of previously privatised water supply and sanitation services to municipal authorities. It also encompasses regional or national initiatives. == Overview == The concept is broadly used to cover: * Changes from private to wholly public ownership of assets or companies. * Changes from outsourcing (or contracting-out) of services to direct provision by a public authority. * Replacement of concessions or lease contracts by public management. Remunicipalisation happens at many levels: * Municipal and community levels (such as in France or the US), including inter-municipal groups or associations. * Regional levels (as in the Buenos Aires and Santa Fe provinces of Argentina). * National levels (such as in Malaysia). At least 234 cases of water remunicipalisation in 37 countries were recorded between 2000 and March 2015, including high profile cases in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. By then, the total number of people served by remunicipalised water services had grown to exceed 100 million. Cases are more concentrated in high-income countries, where 183 remunicipalisations took place in the last 15 years, compared to 51 cases in middle- and low-income countries. Two countries, France with 94 cases and the US with 58 cases, account for the greatest majority of cases in high-income countries. Analysts also signal that the pace of remunicipalisation has doubled in the 2010-2015 period compared with the first decade of the millennium. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Remunicipalization」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
