This is IGEM’s second system-wide reviews progress report which summarises key activities and provides an assessment of implementation progress of 11 recommendations accepted by government from the following four published IGEM system-wide reviews:
- Review of connecting with and preparing communities for major emergencies in Victoria
- Review of incident management teams: accreditation and rostering
- Review of emergency management for high-risk Victorian communities
- Review of impact assessment and consequence management
Under section 64(1)(ba) of the Emergency Management Act 2013, IGEM monitors and reports to the Minister for Police and Emergency Services on the implementation of recommendations arising from its system-wide reviews.
In this report, IGEM observes that the emergency management sector has made good progress in relation to emergency management planning and preparedness to support high-risk Victorian communities and individuals, and improvements to state arrangements for impact assessment and consequence management.
Of the 11 recommendations assessed in this report, IGEM considers:
- one as complete
- one as closed
- nine as ongoing
IGEM will continue to monitor the implementation of the ongoing recommendations from this report, and the implementation of all accepted recommendations from published system-wide reviews conducted under IGEM’s Annual Forward Plan of Reviews.
Implementation of recommendations from IGEM system-wide reviews - Progress Report 2020 was published on 29 October 2020.
