The government is expected to take forward all twelve recommendations made in a landmark report on flood insurance, including four where local authorities will be required to play a significant role.
In the independent review, commissioned by Whitehall in the aftermath of the 2019 South Yorkshire flooding, Aviva chief executive Amanda Blanc explored the extent to which people in the area were adequately protected by insurance. It has already led to a consultation, launched earlier this month, around changes designed to reduce insurance costs for households on low incomes.
The proposed reforms include offering discounts to households that have fitted proper flood resilience measures, and reducing the cheapest subsidised premium for contents insurance provided through the government s Flood Re scheme. Ms Blanc’s report suggests these could still be too high for households on low incomes.
