“Now all municipal services have to be merged and we have to see how we can work efficiently. We are going to appoint an external company for this. Fortunately, we don’t have to invent hot water either. Four mergers have already taken place in East Flanders recently, where we certainly have a lot of energy. can learn from it,” Deswaene concludes.
