Proceeding contribution from David Drew (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Flood and Water Management Bill.


Flood and Water Management Bill

When we are talking about choices, we have to talk about funds as well. Understandably, the majority of funding is directed towards dealing with river and coastal flooding, yet many of our constituents face problems of ground and surface water flooding. How can we get the balance right so that we put in place not only the plans but the funding to make a difference to people's lives?
