To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what reports he has received from the Environment Agency on the potential contribution of the management of the Jubilee River to flood levels in Wraysbury, Datchet, Hythe End and the surrounding areas.
Dan Rogerson
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
Following the construction of the Jubilee river and the January 2003 floods, a number of independent reports have been carried out to investigate the impact on the properties downstream of the Jubilee river. The independent reports, which included modelling, found that there would be no increased flood risk to properties downstream of the Jubilee river. The Environment Agency can provide these reports.
