Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) 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

There is one point I have omitted to refer to. I am grateful to the noble Lord for his contribution. He emphasised the continuing importance of the internal drainage boards, and I can assure him that we share that priority and that commitment. They will not be affected adversely by anything in this legislation; in fact, they have an important role to play.
