Proceeding contribution from Earl Cathcart (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Flood and Water Management Bill.


Flood and Water Management Bill

My Lords, I begin by declaring my interests. I am a farmer and a landowner and I am involved in the property insurance market—all sectors which will be affected by the measures in this Bill. Until recently, I was a local councillor for a number of years in Norfolk. During that time, I had some involvement with our local internal drainage board. The noble Lord, Lord Greaves, has raised questions about the implementation measures contained in the risk management strategies— Sitting suspended for a Division in the House.
