I'm looking for a Government statement on Roath brook. I welcome the proposed work being put on hold on by Natural Resources Wales, but if it goes ahead then people in this part of Penylan will lose half their park and a large number of mature trees will go. The reason given is flood prevention, but there's been no flood in this particular park for certainly more than 70 years, if ever, and the modelling undertaken by Natural Resources Wales looked at the whole area and the data circulated with the consultation was wrong—it was very badly wrong. So, I'm wondering if there's a Government policy on redoing consultations that are flawed and whether or not the people of Penylan in this Roath brook area will be listened to.
