Communities and Local Government, whether the Flood Recovery Framework will be activated for the flooding in Leicestershire.
My thoughts remain with householders and business owners impacted by flooding after the recent heavy rainfall, flooding is a devastating experience for all those affected.Government support in the aftermath of flooding is only provided in exceptional circumstances and at present, overall, the scale of impacts is not sufficiently significant for the Flood Recovery Framework to be activated. However, my officials continue to review impacts data and stand ready to support as appropriate.Activation of the Framework is not limited to flooding following named storms and, when activated, provides a range of support to business and households in eligible areas.
