Are the golf courses and private swimming pools still exempt from those restrictions? We would not want to disturb rich people.

    In areas subject to the highest alert, water is reserved for priority uses such as healthcare, civil protection, drinking water and sanitation.

    Under lower alert levels, restrictions apply to activities such as watering gardens and green spaces, filling swimming pools, washing cars and irrigating crops.
