Water Bill

Proceeding contribution from Nia Griffith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 November 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Water Bill.

Given that the Flood Re scheme does not apply to properties built after 1 January 2009, does the hon. Lady agree that planning authorities need to be ever more vigilant not only in refusing to build on floodplains but in avoiding the knock-on effects of building in certain places that can have devastating effects on existing properties?
