SOMERSET County Council is likely to ask for around £2million from the Government for costs incurred during the floods crisis.
The amount the authority plans to apply for under the Bellwin Scheme was revealed at yesterday’s cabinet meeting, although full details are yet to be confirmed.
However, it has been revealed the county council will not be charged by the military for its assistance.
