Detail of feedback received
We received 57 responses to the consultation. Of these, 33 were from organisations and 24 were from members of the public.
We ran the consultation for 8 weeks, from Monday 26 September to Sunday 20 November 2022.
Respondents told us they want more clarity and guidance to help them to:
- understand the contents of the Plan
- be involved in improving the Plan in the future
- understand their role in implementing the Plan
In particular, respondents said they want to see:
- how we can deliver wider benefits and enhance sustainability
- how the Plan will be funded, and options for accessing funding
- plans to protect west London from flooding
- how we will communicate with different groups covered by the plan, including local communities
- help with planning for defence upgrades
- advice on managing flood risk in areas where it is expected to increase
We have used feedback from the consultation to create the updated Thames Estuary 2100 Plan.
