To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have sought or intend to seek advice from the government of the Netherlands concerning areas of farmland and domestic housing in England that are below sea level.[HL5147]
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have sought or intend to seek advice from the government of the Netherlands concerning areas of farmland and domestic housing in England that are below sea level.[HL5147]
We have no plans to seek advice directly from the Government of the Netherlands in relation to these issues. However, experts from the Netherlands have been involved in discussions with local drainage boards and others in relation to future dredging and drainage of farmland on the Somerset Moors and Levels. The Environment Agency also has access to valuable Dutch expertise on these issues.
That expertise will be taken into account in the Action Plan for the Levels and Moors, which is currently under development. Once the Action Plan has been agreed we will consider whether lessons can be learned for other parts of the country.
Motion to consider. Agreed to on question.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what his policy is on pooling and sharing with NATO allies military platforms such as the Dutch joint logistic support ship which is to be sold as part of Dutch defence spending reductions; and if he will make a statement.

The UK actively participates in NATO Smart Defence and EU Pooling and Sharing initiatives as we seek to maximise resources and capabilities. We examine our participation in these projects on a case-by-case basis to establish if they would benefit the UK and offer value for money. I wrote to the hon. Member for York Central (Hugh Bayley) on 11 September 2013 to outline the extent of our current involvement; a copy of the letter is available in the Library of the House. The Dutch Government has recently confirmed it intends to operate its supply ship nationally as a replenishment tanker and to consider pooling and sharing arrangements for the ship with international partners. Should it become part of the Smart Defence and Pooling and Sharing initiatives we will examine our position accordingly.
