REC116-2101

The Working Group recommends that each jurisdiction; 
• Examine the interdependency of essential services provided by the private sector, utilising where possible other existing programs such as the National Critical Infrastructure Protection Initiative
• Investigate the feasibility of working with industry peak bodies as part of its emergency planning process
• Ensure that linkages exist between Government and the private sector to support emergency plans
• Examine the purpose of their emergency/crisis powers and consider their ability to exercise them in times of emergency.
