Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee report
EMBARGOED TO 0001 FRIDAY APRIL 19 File photo dated 23/01/24 of a fallen tree in flood water in York. The Government is too focused on its short-term response, rather than long-term plans, for floods, storms and heatwaves, MPs have warned. The parliamentary Public Accounts Committee (PAC) said extreme weather was on the rise with climate change and ministers must urgently act to ensure medium and long-term planning and investment in infrastructure to make it resilient to such risks.
