Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what recent discussions she has had with insurance companies on affordable insurance cover after incidents of flooding.
This question was answered on 16th March 2015
At visits to Somerset in December 2014, and Canvey Island in February, I met householders and the insurance industry to discuss recent experiences.
Government and the insurance industry are working closely together to deliver Flood Re, which will ensure access to affordable flood insurance for people at highest risk of flooding.
