Proceeding contribution from Jim Dobbin (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Flooding.
Flooding
My constituency is not a floodplain, but it has recently experienced two very serious flash-flooding episodes. My right hon. Friend has said that existing drainage systems will be looked at. Will he also insist that those undertaking the review plead with local authority planning departments to regulate properly new developments that link into the existing drainage systems, and please ask them to clean their grids more regularly?
