In response to this debate in Committee, the Minister, the noble Baroness, Lady Taylor of Stevenage, concluded basically that it would be a good idea, but not yet. It is almost 20 years since we had the Pitt review, which recommended the mandatory use of SUDS in all new developments, so it is incredibly disappointing that successive Governments—of all persuasions, I have to say—have failed to implement Schedule 3 to the Flood and Water Management Act.
