How many recommendations of the independant review of local government and Natural Resources Wales section 19 reports about extreme flooding during the 2020-21 winter remain unfulfilled and what is the Government's plan and schedule for fulfilling them?
The Flood and Coastal Erosion Committee (FCEC) have established a Section 19 working group and are working with Welsh Local Government Association and Local Authority partners to consider the review findings. This includes carrying out a consultation in the Autumn to identify high level requirements to develop supporting guidance for Section 19 flood investigation reports.
NRW continue to work on delivering the outstanding actions from their internal review into the 2020 storms. They aim to complete these by the end of the year.
