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 am not aware of the precise details of the case that the hon. Gentleman has raised, but perhaps he would like to write to me with further details—although the matter probably falls within the responsibilities of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government. The hon. Gentleman makes a good point: people who give planning permission in future should reflect on the consequences of what they have given permission for.
