Flooding Lessons Learned Review
The Secretary of State for the Environment announced in July 2007 that the Government was to conduct a review into the flooding that occurred in England during June and July 2007.
The Review will be led by Sir Michael Pitt, Chair of the South West Strategic Health Authority
The Review will be carried out by the Cabinet Office with support from the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs and the Department for Communities and Local Government and will examine both how to reduce the risk and impact of floods and the emergency response to the floods. The full Terms of Reference for the review can be found on this website.
As part of the review process, the Review team will seek the views of affected communities and local businesses as well as other key stakeholders such as the emergency services, professional associations, local authorities, voluntary organisations, industry associations, public and regulatory bodies, and will provide the opportunity to contribute and shape the direction of the review's recommendations.
The Review team welcomes comments, ideas and suggestions from all sections of the community regarding the review, as well as feedback on the experiences of those affected by the floods in June and July 2007 or whose home or business is susceptible to the risk of flooding.
Please use the comments form in order to submit your comments directly to the Review team or write to us at the address below.
The deadline for comments before the interim report is 26 October 2007. Comments added after this time will still inform the final report.
