Where development is necessary in a flood risk area, it should be made safe for its lifetime, without increasing flood risk elsewhere, and be appropriately flood resistant and resilient. In July 2021 the Framework was strengthened further to ensure that all<\/em> sources of flood risk are considered during plan making and providing a clear definition of what it means for a property to be resilient to flooding.
