Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether (a) policies and (b) commitments in the forthcoming National Adaptation Programme are being developed alongside and incorporated into the forthcoming Land Use Framework.
We are currently developing both the Land Use Framework and the Third National Adaptation Plan. The work undertaken to prepare these documents is being shared in support of our intention that the two documents will complement each other. The Land Use Framework will take account of existing policies and commitments including those included in the National Adaptation Programme, which will be important in supporting resilient landscapes.
