Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many flood defence schemes are planned to be built under the Government's flood defence programme.
This question was answered on 12th March 2015
Our 6 year flood defence programme, announced in December, includes more than 1,400 projects across the country. This £2.3 billion investment is a real terms increase and will mean 300,000 more homes will be better protected.
