Thank you to Mick Antoniw for allowing us this opportunity to reflect again on the Prime Minister's words in the House of Commons, when he did say that funding would be passported directly to the Welsh Government, in order to fund those repairs to the flooding damage. We've yet to see a penny of that funding, but we are still in dialogue with the UK Government. In the meantime, we've been at pains to reassure the affected local authorities that work should continue on the grounds of safety, and that the funding issues shouldn't prevent that work from starting.
