Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether she plans to publish a Wildfire Strategy and Action Plan for England; and if that strategy will include targets for reducing vegetation fuel loads.

The Government will publish a Wildfire Action Plan for England, setting out action to strengthen wildfire prevention, preparedness, response and recovery. Following the Wildfire Summit on 23 October 2026, we will work across government and with fire and rescue services, land managers and other partners to develop the detail of the plan.
