Proceeding contribution from Hilary Benn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Flooding.
Flooding
I would be happy to meet representatives of the farming community to discuss those issues, because I am acutely conscious of the difficulties that farmers will face, which have already been raised. The farming community can make a contribution, as we recognise that one of the places where water can go is away from built-up areas, but that can have knock-on consequences on crops that have been planted.
