HC Deb 30 March 1981 vol 2 c8W
Sir Raymond Gower

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement regarding the extent of flood damage during the heavy rainfall of the past month in Wales; and what help his Department has been able to give to the areas affected.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

With the exception of Isgoed housing estate at Llanelli, where about 50 houses were affected, all of the many incidents of localised flooding which occurred throughout Wales were relatively minor. Responsibility for dealing with them rests with local authorities and the Welsh water authority.
