To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with the Welsh Government about any joint action needed to minimise the danger of flooding in Monmouth.
Flooding is a devolved matter, and the Welsh Government has responsibility for preparations, response and recovery. I offered support and assistance on behalf of Defra to the Deputy First Minister and officials engaged with their counterparts. Staff from Flood Re and a FloodMobile – a mobile demonstration unit that showcases dozens of Property Flood Resilience measures which can help better protect homes from flooding or make recovery faster – were in Monmouth on Wednesday 19 November and plan to revisit next week.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, when a Minister from his Department last visited Monmouth constituency.
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State and I both live in Wales and serve Welsh constituencies. We have a consistent presence in Wales as we conduct many visits, events and meetings in Wales on a regular basis.
Details of Ministerial visits and meetings are published on the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales’ website and in Quarterly Ministerial Transparency Returns. In addition, visits and meetings conducted in support of the Wales Office priorities are published in the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales Annual Report and Accounts.
The UK Government has provided extensive support to Monmouth. A typical household in Wales has received almost £2000 in UK Government support to help with the cost of living. This includes over 235,000 payments delivered in Monmouth through the Energy Bills Support Scheme. During the Covid-19 pandemic over 12,000 jobs were supported through the furlough scheme, around £33 million was claimed through the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme and around £80 million was given to businesses through government-backed business loans
The UK Government has also supported innovation within Monmouth with around £4.8 million awarded by Innovate UK since April 2019. Monmouth has also received around £107,000 through the Multi-Sport Grassroots Facilities Programme to level up local sports facilities.
In addition, Monmouthshire, the local authority for the Monmouth constituency, is receiving over £7 million from the UK Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund. Monmouth also benefits from the £1.2 billion Cardiff Capital Region City Deal, including a £2 million investment in Creo Medical in Chepstow.
This Government is investing in Wales like never before; over £790 million in four City and Regional Growth Deals covering the whole of Wales, £585 million for local authorities to invest through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, including over £100 million for the Multiply adult numeracy programme, £330 million in capital investment through the Levelling Up Fund and £3.2 million to preserve community assets through the Community Ownership Fund. Wales will benefit from two Freeports backed by £52 million, the British Business Bank’s new £130m Regional Investment Fund, and from Project Gigabit which will enable hard to reach communities to access lightning-fast gigabit capable broadband.

Successive years of record numbers crossing the channel has placed our immigration system under substantial pressure. To meet our statutory obligation, we ask our accommodation providers to source accommodation in all areas.
When a site becomes available and meets the requirements of our accommodation standards, we follow our engagement process and notify the local MP as well as local authority officials in advance of using the location.

The Home Office has a statutory obligation to provide accommodation and other support to asylum seekers who would otherwise be destitute while their application for asylum is being considered.
The Home Office does not publish a breakdown of how many asylum seekers are accommodated in each constituency. This is as these figures are not available in reportable format, and to provide the information could only be done at a disproportionate cost. However, the latest published Immigration Statistics detail the number of asylum seekers accommodated in each local authority area. These statistics can be found at Asylum and resettlement datasets - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). Data is published on a quarterly basis, with the latest information published 25 August 2022, and the next quarterly figures are due to be released later this month.
