The Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources (Abbreviation: MEWR; {{lang-ms|Kementerian Sekitaran dan Sumber Air}}; Chinese: {{lang|zh|环境及水源部}}; {{lang-ta|சுற்றுப்புறம் மற்றும் நீர்வள அமைச்சு}}) formerly the Ministry of the Environment (ENV), is a ministry of the Government of Singapore responsible for providing a quality living environment and a high standard of public health, protected against the spread of communicable diseases. It was set up in 1972, and today, together with its two statutory boards – the National Environment Agency (NEA) and Public Utilities Board – the Ministry’s area of responsibility has widened to include ensuring a clean and hygienic living environment, as well as managing the complete water cycle – from sourcing, collection, purification and supply of drinking water; to the treatment of used water and recycling into NEWater; desalination; as well as storm water drainage.

On 1 April 2019, A new statutory board Singapore Food Agency (SFA) will be created to amalgamate the functions of three stat boards, Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA), National Environment Agency (NEA) and Health Sciences Authority (HSA). A National Centre for Food Science will also be established under SFA to consolidate the food laboratory capabilities of the three agencies.
