“Professor Depledge, I would like to ask you some further questions. We have talked about the precautionary principle, but could you also expand on how strong our evidential base on this issue is, and whether you feel that we need further epidemiological studies to inform regulation?”

“I think you did. To follow up, although I might be prompting you to repeat a statement you have already made, what would you like to see this Committee recommending to Government to tackle the potential of those synergistic effects now?”

“Did you want to come in on that, Professor Depledge?”

“To some extent, such studies are having to run to catch up, because the chemicals are already out there and we are trying to work out what the problem is, when perhaps we should have known what the potential problems were before the chemicals were in the public sphere. Dr Cloy, what is known about the long-term health …”

“Johnson Matthey are a major employer in my constituency in my hometown of Royston. I am in ongoing communication with them as a result.”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Stuart. I would like to ask a few questions about article 3 of the order. In practice, its current drafting means that the order would regulate Klarna, if it offered buy now, pay later agreements to customers shopping on Amazon, but it would not regulate Amazon, if …”

“Ms Dunford, to what extent are insurers linking premiums, claim support or other incentives to property flood resilience measures?”

“How likely is that? How close are we to that?”

“I have one question for the whole panel. Experts have been suggesting that, with the looming expiry of Flood Re in 2039, we could be in a position, on the current trajectory that we have just been discussing, where without intervention we see a significant number of properties becoming uninsurable and therefore unsella…”

“With the Chair’s discretion, would you mind writing to the Committee with some further details on how we might join those up ?”

“Mr Shepherd, how can we ensure that flood resilience improvements are maintained over time, particularly in rented or multi-occupancy properties?”

“I have a final question for anyone on the panel who is particularly keen to answer it for me. What role should adaptation finance play in supporting both the uptake and long-term effectiveness of insurance-linked resilience measures?”
