Proceeding contribution from Brooks Newmark (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 March 2007. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget resolutions.


AMENDMENT OF THE LAW

Let me address the effects that the hon. Gentleman is talking about. In my constituency of Braintree, the village of Coggeshall faces severe flooding. However, when we ask the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs for money for flood defences, we are told that it is not available. What aspect of the Budget showed that the Chancellor might be allocating more for better flood defences in this country?
