Sir Menzies Campbell MP has called for “substantive measures†to be implemented in order to deal with the reoccurring risk of floods in North East Fife. The latest bout of flooding in North East Fife caused widespread disruption.
Sir Menzies said:
“Time and time again we are being caught short by nature and it is going to take a substantive range of measures to properly address this problem.
“We must be proactive with flood defence as opposed to continually reacting to its damage.
“Work needs to be done to identify properly the problem areas and to determine what is required to alleviate its effects by utilising the best expertise available.
“This will be neither cheap nor quick but is entirely necessary.â€
