Minister, we've got forecasts that we'll see a wetter-than-average summer. We're now predicted to be in a La Nina weather cycle, which normally brings increased rain and higher chances of flooding. This will lead to more flooding across the east of the country. What is our government doing to mitigate against flood damage and to help with the repair bill but also to prepare for future flooding events?
