In a report published today, the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee is warning that shortfalls in Environment Agency funding are responsible for the deteriorating state of England’s flood defences.

The Environment Agency is warning people to remain vigilant as flooding continues in England where the number of properties which have flooded has now reached the 2,000 mark.
