Floods: Cambridgeshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, which agency leads the multi-agency response to flooding in Cambridgeshire.
Answered by Alex Norris
Cambridgeshire constabulary will usually chair local strategic and tactical response coordination meetings attended by a range of relevant partners including the emergency services, local authorities, and the Environment Agency.
Multi-agency flood response in Cambridgeshire is coordinated through Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Local Resilience Forum (CPLRF) who will stand up response structures to help respond to and recover from major emergencies or incidents that may occur. Any agency within the LRF can declare a major incident.
