A yw unrhyw gyllid Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i gymeradwyo'n ffurfiol ar gyfer adeiladu amddiffynfeydd rhag llifogydd parhaol yn Ynysgynwraidd?
To date the Welsh Government has not received a formal confirmation of planned construction for permanent flood defences in Skenfrith.
The Welsh Government provides funding to Risk Management Authorities (RMAs - namely Natural Resources Wales and Local Authorities) to deliver flood and coastal erosion schemes in Wales. This is delivered through the Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management (FCERM) Programme.
Flood alleviation schemes in Wales are developed using our FCERM business case guidance which complies with the five-case business model process and HM Treasury guidance. This approach applies to all RMAs in Wales to ensure a consistent approach to scheme development.
Natural Resources Wales (NRW) are the RMA responsible for managing the risk of flooding at Skenfrith and developing the business case for potential future investment at that location. A Strategic Outline Case has been completed, with the Outline Business Case currently ongoing. Upon completion, a Full Business Case will be undertaken. Once complete, NRW are responsible for prioritising which of their schemes receives construction funding.
