1 July 2008: To Hull Daily Mail - published 10 July 2008

Dear Editor

 

I would like to thank everyone who took the time to attend my coffee morning on Sunday 29 June to discuss the on-going issues around flooding in Hull.

 

Neil Sykes from the National Consumer Council for Water heard at first-hand about the various problems still affecting my constituents a year after the events of 25 June 2007. Residents in Bransholme and Kingswood stressed the need for Yorkshire Water to engage with the local community about their investment plans for the next five years, with a view to funding increased pumping capacity at the Bransholme Pumping Station.

 

Having suffered some flooding in my own home, I know that its effects are many and varied.  Some people who were worst-hit will need help and assistance for many months - and probably years - to come. 

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

 

Diana Johnson MP

Kingston upon Hull North
