Part of Northern Ireland – in the House of Commons at on 22 November 2023.
Chris Heaton-Harris
The Secretary of State for Northern Ireland
I would like to thank the local councils and the Northern Ireland civil service for the work they have done on this so far. The flooding, which I know we will talk about a bit later, was extraordinary and so many people were affected who did not expect to be. Some £15 million has been assigned for that at this point in time, but the right hon. Gentleman is quite right to say that the consequences of the floods will have ramifications for months and years to come.
