Labour — Kingston upon Hull West and Haltemprice

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 December 2024

Debate

River Dredging

Contribution

Dredging used to be commonplace, but some evidence shows that it can speed up flow and potentially increase the risk of flooding downstream. There are currently no plans for any further dredging in Boston and Skegness, but I am happy to meet the hon. Gentleman and the EA area manager to discuss this further.
