Business of the House

Contribution

I absolutely join my hon. Friend in congratulating all those involved in the Brampton flood defence project, protecting their local community from flooding. I want to pay particular attention to the work of farmers in this regard. We have announced the largest programme tackling flooding in history, with £10.5 billion up to 2036 protecting 890,000 homes and businesses. I will ask the relevant Minister to give my hon. Friend an update and, if necessary, to update the House.
