Federal infrastructure and assets shall be managed by and under federal administration.
By a federal law requiring the consent of the Federal Government, responsibilities for federal administration may be delegated to the cantons acting on federal commission.
Each canton can solely invest in new assets, erect new facilities, and improve the use of the resources and/or infrastructure (solar, wind, water, communication, commuting, electricity, public transport, etc.) after due studies on the overall impacts thereof without the consent of the Federal Government and/or Federal Authorities.
Such action may only be taken to the extent that such new investment is (i) funded by the resources of the canton itself or by private investors, (ii) aligned with the overall sectoral policy of the cantonal government, and (iii) not conflicting with sectoral policy adopted by the Federal Government.
The Federation and/or the canton and/or the Municipality (as the case may be) may make use of a company under private law to discharge its responsibilities.
