We have considered the committee’s report carefully, and I have responded to the points on wildfire licensing in this speech. Defra will continue to work closely with the NFCC and fire and rescue services, as well as MHCLG and the lead government departments for wildfire. This will ensure open communications and collaborative working to achieve the best outcomes. I would like to thank the committee again for its thorough examination of these regulations and its ongoing role in the scrutiny of secondary legislation.
