The Regional Flood and Coastal Committee
(RFCC) is a committee established by the Environment Agency under
the Flood and Water Management Act 2010 that brings together
members appointed by Lead Local Flood Authorities (LLFAs) and
independent members with relevant experience for three
purposes:
·
to ensure there are coherent plans for identifying, communicating
and managing flood and coastal erosion risks across catchments and
shorelines
·
to encourage efficient, targeted and risk-based investment in flood
and coastal erosion risk management that represents value for money
and benefits local communities
·
to provide a link between the Environment Agency, LLFAs, other risk
management authorities, and other relevant bodies to build
understanding of flood and coastal erosion risks in its area
Cllr Syed Ghani is a member of the Thames RFCC
by virtue of his appointment by London Councils as a representative
of the North East Partnership.
