Flooding

Proceeding contribution from Laurence Robertson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 February 2014. It occurred during Opposition day on Flooding.

The Secretary of State talks about development being directed away from flood-risk areas unless it is absolutely necessary. However, the question is: why is it absolutely necessary to build in certain areas that are at great risk of flooding, including in my constituency, which he has been kind enough to observe?
