Review annually to ensure risk level does not change The Approach Risk Scoring Guide

LCC Emergency Planning Liverpool Emergency Planning share the Level 3 NI 188 assessment with the City Council. Staff regularly engage with the Emergency Services through the Local Resilience Forum and practical response exercises. Annual reviews of multiagency practical responses and documents enable risks to be reassessed and updated as required. Longer term planning/horizon scanning for pandemic flu, Olympics etc Production of the ‘Lets Get Ready Liverpool’ booklet

Key Summary Points Emergency Services are well positioned and structured to adapt as required. Risks are well understood with responses in place (statutory responsibility) but they are not currently labelled as climate change adaptations Comparison of risk priorities shows both shared and individual Service risks Emergency Services are at a higher level of adaptation response/preparedness (under NI 188) than they initially rated themselves Longer term adaptation responses are under consideration Sharing of best practice is through the Local Resilience Forum and there is good engagement with the Local Authority There is increasing anecdotal evidence for climate change adaptation

Next Steps Further engagement with NHS/PCT to complete the assessment Offer of ongoing support to Emergency Services re future work Presentation to Local Resilience Forum Capture learning and outcomes for general dissemination
