With much of the South West underwater, flooding has once again become a hot-topic. We look in one of our monthly<\/a> articles at the huge range of questions the Government and its agencies much ask themselves if flooding is ever to be nullified as an issue of great concern for British homeowners…<\/p>\n

Here’s a few questions we raise:<\/p>\n

Britain has a substantial housing shortage – so where do<\/em> we build? On green belt protected land?\u00c2\u00a0Urban sprawl across our green and pleasant land? That wasn’t well received when Nick Boles proposed to\u00c2\u00a0relax green belt regulations<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Should innovation be encouraged to create houses that are watertight up to first floor level? Should it be made a planning condition for developments on flood plains with a flood in the last 10 years to construct watertight houses up to a certain standard? What about a government competition for architects and building product designers to come up with the best solution?<\/p>\n
