Abstract
This quick note, is based on the report
'Lebanon: social impact analysis for the electricity
and water sectors', issued by World Bank's Middle
East and North Africa region's social and economic
development group in June 2009. The report considers
implications for the consumer of current service provision
and impending reforms in Lebanon's utility sector. It
assesses: i) how different categories of households, and
especially the poor, are affected by deficient electricity
and water service; ii) the potential social impact of
alternative reform scenarios, including tariff changes in
the case of electricity and metering in the case of water;
and iii) implications of better cost recovery measures in
both sectors.
