Volume 462: debated on Tuesday 10 July 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs whether any flood defence failures occurred in the recent flooding in Sheffield. (146567)

[holding answer 29 June2007]: I refer the hon. Member to the statement given by the then Secretary of State on 26 June 2007, Official Report, column 163, in which he explained that it is too early to make a full assessment of the recent flooding but that there had been no reported structural failings of flood defences.
