North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee draft business plan 2019 to 2022

The Environment Agency is running this consultation on behalf of the North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee (RFCC).

The North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee (RFCC) is one of 12 RFCCs in England. RFCCs were established under the Flood and Water Management Act 2010, to bring together the authorities responsible for managing flood and coastal erosion risk (Environment Agency, Lead Local Flood Authorities and water and sewerage companies).

So that we are clear about what we want to achieve and how we will do it, we have produced a draft business plan for the RFCC, covering the 3 year period from 2019 to 2022. The business plan sets out who we are, how we operate, and our long terms goals. From these we have identified priorities and objectives for the period to 2022. We have produced the plan partly for ourselves but also to communicate and engage with those who will benefit from our work and those who we might work in partnership with.
