Several Acts of Parliament have accompanied these changes.</p><p>The Environment Agency understands that responsibilities and obligations from predecessor bodies have been consolidated and remain in place.</p><p>Coastal jurisdiction is split between local authorities for coast protection and the Environment Agency and its predecessors for sea defences. This position was clarified by the Shoreline Management Plan 2010.</p><p>Inland, the Environment Agency has a role in managing flood risk from “main rivers” (as defined by Defra). This can include maintenance of flood risk management assets on a permissive and affordable basis and in line with Treasury Rules and Defra Guidance. Maintenance work is undertaken as identified by the Catchment Flood Management Plans that guide the level of work needed at a particular location.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency North Cornwall answering member printed Dan Rogerson question first answered 19/01/2015 13:59:10 answering member 1504 label Biography information for Dan Rogerson
