Proceeding contribution from Hilary Benn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Pitt Report.


Pitt Report

They are intended to do that. I am aware of the case that my right hon. Friend has raised, and I understand that there is some dispute between Yorkshire Water and Leeds city council over who should take responsibility. However, the fact that Leeds will be one of the six local authorities to produce the first of the surface water management plans will mean that such issues can be resolved and that there can be clarity over who is responsible for doing what. I should also like to say to the hon. Member for Westmorland and Lonsdale (Tim Farron) that we will review PPS25 early next year.
