Generic Emergency Plan

14/07/2021 - Borough Emergency Plan 2021

RESOLVED:

 

1.  That the annual review of the generic borough emergency plan be agreed with the understanding that further lessons from both the ongoing response to COVID-19 and other incidents will continue to be incorporated into future learning and planning.

 

2.  That updated councillor briefing sessions are put in place to further explore the role of councillors in emergency planning and to inform future development of incident management.

 

3.  That it be noted that the council’s emergency arrangements will continue to be guided by pan-London standards and approach, including any ongoing  arrangements resulting from the city-wide COVID-19 response.

 

4.  That in the light of the fluidity in Covid infection rates across London, that the council reserves the right to activate council wide emergency response arrangements, acting on the advice of public health locally and regionally as appropriate.
