Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 10 June 2025 to Question 57090 on Rivers: Flood Control, how much of the £200 million funding for river asset management will be allocated to Suffolk County Council.

Asked by:
Patrick Spencer (Conservative)

Answer

The Environment Agency (EA) is allocating approximately £200 million for the management of flood and coastal risk management assets in 2025/26.

This funding, which is managed by the EA and not allocated to other risk management authorities, will enhance our ability to manage flood risks and ensure public safety. £4 million of this funding is allocated to asset management activities within Suffolk County Council’s boundaries in 2025/26.
