Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment the Government has made of the potential merits of reviewing environmental funding in tandem with periodic reviews of progress under the 25 Year Environment Plan to ensure that sufficient funding is available to achieve the Government's intended environmental targets after the UK leaves the EU.
This is a devolved matter and the below information relates to England only. The Government will report annually on progress towards meeting the goals set out in the 25 Year Environment Plan to leave the environment in a better state for the next generation. These annual reports will explore what further action is required to meet these goals including delivery mechanisms, resources and consideration of available sources of funding.
