Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask His Majesty's Government which planned housing developments, if any, are currently not proceeding as result of low water levels across the UK.

Defra are aware of some developments, such as in Cambridge and North Sussex, which are seeing objections to planning concerning water availability and the impact on the environment. Defra is working closely with DLUHC to identify solutions to overcome these barriers to enable growth.
