Oral Answers to Questions

Luke Evans Excerpts

Thursday 18th January 2024 Commons Chamber

[Oliver Dowden]

I am not aware of those allegations, but they sound very concerning and I am very happy to look into them on behalf of the hon. Lady.

[Dr Luke Evans (Bosworth) (Con)]

T2.   Last year, the Government trialled their emergency alerts system. This summer, I had the joy of going to South Korea. Unfortunately, I was caught up in the typhoon, but there were many such alerts telling people where roads were closed or flooded. Recently in Leicestershire, the likes of Shenton and Witherley came under the cosh of flooding, and my constituents are wondering whether the alert system could be used for something like this, as the Government website states that it can.
