Special Report No. 92 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Strategic Planning for Flood Risk Management
9:10 am
Ms Clare McGrath:
Making all this effort, collectively, nationally, involves using that information to say we will not put people at risk. On the basis of the accuracy of those maps, there are risks - I take the point that was raised - and we will manage those and not create a situation where we turn around and say this is flooded and we need to defend something we built since making the maps.
