<p>The Government is investing £2.6 billion (including the additional £76m announced
in the last Budgert) between 2015 and 2021, delivering at least 1,500 new flood defence
schemes and better protecting 300,000 homes. The six year Capital Investment Programme
will provide Flood Defence Grant-in-Aid as shown below for flood and coastal risk
management schemes by NUTS 1 regions.</p><p> </p><p>Where appropriate, property level
flood protection measures are integrated within flood risk management schemes. The
Government does not hold information centrally about the breakdown of spending for
individual elements, such as property level protection measures, of these schemes.</p><p>
</p><p>The nationally coordinated project investment includes flood defences which
are located in more than one NUTS 1 region, and capitalised costs which support the
development of these physical and natural defences.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>NUTS1
