Victoria's 2022 flood response called 'catastrophic failure' in inquiry

The warnings, predictions and handling of the 2022 Maribyrnong floods in Victoria have been labelled a 'catastrophic failure' at a parliamentary inquiry looking into the disaster. Victoria Racing Club has defended a controversial floodwall at Flemington Racecourse despite claims from residents that it made the flooding worse. When the Maribyrnong River flooded in October last year, it came fast and without warning. Councils and residents on the river's edge were advised by authorities that there would be minimal damage. More than 680 homes were inundated, and thousands of residents in Maribyrnong, Moonee Valley, and Melbourne City were evacuated.
