Lord De Mauley
We have thought very carefully about that, my Lords, and we have concluded that it would be more expensive. However, as I said, green infrastructure and SUDS solutions are part of the long-term solution.
Baroness Farrington of Ribbleton (Lab)
My Lords, why did the Minister fail to answer the question put by my noble friend Lord Grantchester?
Lord De Mauley
My Lords, because there probably would not be time to do it justice. However, I assure noble Lords that the question of how we structure this project is complicated and we are being extremely careful about it.
