Question
Further to WAQ73126, will the Cabinet Secretary confirm that the monies allocated for flood alleviation in respect of Llanmaes remain available and indicate the total sum?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs
The Welsh Government awarded funding of £603k to the Vale of Glamorgan Council to procure a design for a scheme for Llanmaes.
In 2022, we made £2.025m available to the council, who attempted to procure a contractor, but construction costs proved to be significantly higher and would have outweighed the benefits.
We will continue to support the local authority as they seek a cost-effective solution.
