It is necessary to investigate the whole incident and look at the issues. The Chairman is aware of the humanitarian aid available to businesses if they are affected by flooding. The money that can be drawn down is somewhat low. Flooding can affect mental health through stress and also result in a loss of income and revenue to businesses. I cannot provide an answer on an individual case but I am looking at individual home protection schemes for such people.
