Question
Further to WQ87045, will the Minister outline what support package the Welsh Government will provide to help protect historic buildings in Wales under threat by flooding?
Answer
Answered by Deputy Minister for Arts and Sport, and Chief Whip
Welsh Government’s flood risk management strategy prioritises funding to schemes that reduce risk to existing homes and communities, though businesses and other infrastructure may also benefit. Historic buildings may benefit from this investment where they are part of communities deemed to be at particular risk.
