Flood Control: Somerset
Asked by: Sarah Dyke (Liberal Democrat - Glastonbury and Somerton)
Tuesday 17th June 2025

Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, with reference to paragraph 4.62 of HM Treasury's document entitled Spending Review 2025, published on 12 June 2025, what proportion of flood defence spending from 2026-27 to 2028-29 will be allocated to Somerset.

Answered by Emma Hardy - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)

We’re investing £2.65 billion over two years to March 2026 to maintain, repair, and build flood defences. We’re committing a further £4.2 billion over three years from April 2026, an increase of 5% per year, as announced at Spending Review 2025. We’re consulting on proposals for reforming flood defence funding, protecting all communities including rural, coastal, and poorer areas.

The list of projects to receive government funding will be consented on an annual basis through Regional Flood and Coastal Committees, with local representation.

Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, if she will make an assessment with Cabinet colleagues of the potential merits of developing a strategy on supporting LGBTQ people in care.

Answered by Nia Griffith - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Wales Office)

We want everyone, including LGBT+ people, to have fair access to high quality care, which is respectful and inclusive.

The government recently introduced a new qualification to improve our training offer to social care staff on being supportive and caring of everyone.

We’ve launched an Independent Commission into adult social care which will work with people from all backgrounds drawing on care and their families, to build a National Care Service that meets the needs of the whole population.
