We are supportive of natural flood prevention solutions and several water companies are already leading the way in delivering investments in natural solutions to manage the pressure on our water system. I know my noble friend Lord Gascoigne is particularly interested in natural flood prevention solutions and has a particularly elegant and forceful amendment on this, which I have signed and we will discuss later in Committee. We agree with my noble friend Lady McIntosh of Pickering’s Amendment 34, which would require sewage undertakers to take steps to prioritise natural flood prevention in their pollution incident reduction plans.
