the collected data on water consumption are not covering all Member States and are partly based on proxies;
general estimates at the level of the whole EU do not represent the actual local impact of water stress. An example: in Sections 4.3 and 4.6 it was pointed out that the increase of irrigated area and in per capita household water use is the strongest in southern Europe, which already is the most water stressed region in Europe.
these estimates must be taken for what they are: rough indications of the direction that water stress is taking.
