For 2020-21, the Welsh Government will receive an additional £17m in Barnett consequentials from additional spending on flood prevention in England. If the Welsh Government matches our spending per head on flood prevention then this would see over £300m spent in Wales by 2026-27.</p> answering member printed The Earl of Courtown question first answered 13/03/2020 11:22:50 answering member 3359 label Biography information for The Earl of Courtown
