The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what additional funding and resources will be allocated to local authorities to implement the recommendations of the Government's Resilience Review.

Answered by Alex Norris

The Resilience Review is considering established practices and policies to support UK resilience against the full spectrum of risks we face. It is evidence based and is identifying what should be kept, changed or improved to ensure we are best prepared now and into the future.

Government will continue to work closely with local partners to ensure local resilience is at the heart of the Review; and relevant outcomes will be considered as part of any future investment into national and local resilience.

The Resilience Review is due to conclude in Spring 2025.
