Wording of this kind is designed to defy the country's leading philosophers of logic, and let's remember that the Act is designed to tackle a major emergency–sorry, disaster. The real problem is that the British emergencyplanning, management and response system is fragmented and incomplete.
I had the task, as the EmergencyPlanningManager, to conduct a debrief of a multi-agency water contamination exercise involving the Local CCDC (doctor responsible for outbreaks in the local area), the Local Authority, a hospital and various people from Anglian Water. A long time ago I was involved in the water industry.

Many of the former Scottish EmergencyPlanningManagers have renamed themselves as Resilience Managers, or have resilience in their department’s name. My impression is that everyone is jumping on the bandwagon.

One of my jobs as EmergencyPlanningManager at Anglian Water, as soon as a major incident occurred, was to find staff members to fill all the shifts at the incident room. Secondly if staff work long hours, they may suffer fatigue, make poor decisions and not be actually contributing to the recovery.
When I was the EmergencyPlanningManager at Anglian Water, I was called to the mail room to look at a suspicious envelope which had been X-rayed by mail staff, and seemingly contained a needle. Not all things sent in the post are designed to harm, sometimes they are just plain stupid.

The intersection of climate change and hurricane activity has become a focal point for scientific research and policy discussions worldwide. While debates continue over whether climate change directly increases the frequency of Atlantic hurricanes, there is a strong consensus that global warming significantly impacts their behavior and intensity.
A while ago I was the EmergencyPlanningManager for a large company, as they had many international travellers, travelling to all parts of the world. Part of my role was to make sure that we were ready to respond if staff were kidnapped.
This itself leads to managing an incident over a video conferencing system. This week I share some views on how technology can be used to manage an incident in our brave new hybrid world. This room was set up at Graham’s WaterWorks about 5 miles away from the company’s headquarters.

The interview for my first job when coming out of the army in 1995, was for the role of EmergencyPlanningManager for a water company in the UK. This week I thought I would talk about the vulnerability of water systems to cyber-attacks and some ideas of what, as business continuity professionals, we can do about this.
National standards should be developed to ensure that emergencyplans are functional and compatible with one another, and that they ensure the interoperability of emergency services and functions. All levels of public administration should be required to produce emergencyplans and maintain them by means of periodic updates.
I have developed crisis managementplans, emergencyplans and business continuity plans at all levels, for a multitude of different organisations and industries. I have also run numerous exercises for senior management teams and feel confident and comfortable running them.
