Whether it will consider creating a database of ownership for weirs and sluice gates.

Scottish Environment Protection Agency has a record of those weirs and sluice gates that require a Controlled Activities Regulation licence.
Those weir and sluice gates that have the potential to contribute to flood risk will be identified as part of the flood risk management planning process established under the Flood Risk Management (Scotland) Act 2009.
Last year SEPA completed a National Flood Risk Assessment in a move towards a more sustainable approach to flood risk management in Scotland. This assessment will help target funds at areas where the impact of flooding is greatest. Under the Act, SEPA has also been tasked with developing a national strategic framework for flood risk management, working together with all responsible authorities including local authorities. Flood hazard and flood risk maps for areas at significant risk are to be prepared by December 2013, with flood risk plans for such areas to be put in place by December 2015, in line with EU requirements. The measures identified to reduce flood risk may include the identification, modification and/or maintenance of weirs and sluice gates in specific local areas, if they are deemed to be contributing to flood risk.
