The request to share this information with the public regarding public water comes when Botswana faces one of the harshest droughts. This information is essential for the nation to plan and manage what available water resources there are. This is good governance and solidifying a transparent relationship with its clients. Unfortunately, the WUC has denied the public this fundamental right which impacts the quality of life of Batswana. The right to information allows people to access information held by public authorities that perform public functions, such as the Water Utilities Corporation.
