Table explanation


This table contains figures on balance sheet items by water board in millions of euros. The figures presented in the table are based on balance sheet positions that are in line with the definitions and classifications used by the water boards themselves in their administration and are presented at year-end. This data is supplied to Statistics Netherlands via the survey 'EMU-verplichting waterschappen' . The requirements for this survey are laid down in the 'Besluit Begroting en Verantwoording waterschappen (BBVw)'.

Data available from: 2005

Status of the figures:
The figures in this table are provisional at the time of first publication. The figures become definitive when figures for the following year are added to the series.

Changes as of 16 December 2025:
The provisional figures for 2024 have been added.
The figures for 2023 are definite.

When will new figures be published?
The new figures from the water board accounts are published no later than 12 months after the reporting period.
The figures can be adjusted on the basis of the availability of new or updated source material. In general, the adjustments are small. The adjustments are made the moment a new annual figure is added to the series.
