Purpose of the Report 2. The purpose of this report is to advise Council of progress in Emergency Management towards non-financial targets for the period ending January to March 2012. 3. This report highlights achievements, activities and trends during this period and identifies items to be aware of in the coming quarter. 4. Executive Summary 5. Emergency Management has transferred to the Performance Group and is being managed by Ray Pooley alongside Property Management. 6. HCC, as an organisation, is not adequately prepared to respond to an emergency situation, and a considerable amount of energy is going into focusing on key areas of vulnerability to mitigate this risk. 7. The 2012-22 10-Year Plan includes funding in Emergency Management for a new staff member which will be employed from 1 July 2012 to manage and co-ordinate HCC’s response and recovery from an emergency event. This is to supplement the sub regional focus of the WVEOA as HCC currently has a large risk of being under prepared in a significant emergency situation. 8. An internal review is underway to streamline the service delivery of our current Civil Defence Emergency Management team for the (WVEOA). An outcome of this review is to ensure the WVEOA staff are delivering the right outcomes that meet the partner councils needs. 9. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) - All year to date measures (2011/12) are on target to be achieved or have been achieved. Measures for 2012/13 have been developed as part of the 10year plan and are incorporated in the emergency management activity plan.
