This consultation closed on Monday 14 March 2011. Read the final chapters here.
As part of the Civil Contingencies Act Enhancement Programme (CCAEP), we have undertaken a number of projects aimed at better supporting responders to fulfil their duties under the Civil Contingencies Act 2004 (CCA). At Phase 1 of the Programme, we revised Chapters 2 (Co-operation) and 3 (Information Sharing) of Emergency Preparedness, the statutory guidance that accompanies the CCA, as well as drafting a new chapter on The Fit with Other Legislation. Following consultation on those chapters last year, the final versions of those chapters will be published next month, alongside reports on the consultations and the Government responses to those consultations. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who contributed to those consultations.
We are now consulting on revisions to further chapters. These changes have emerged from projects taken forward as part of Phase 2 of the CCAEP.
Details of the proposed changes to each chapter are set out in Annex A and a response form is attached as Annex B. Please complete this form when responding to the consultation and send to: ccact@cabinet-office.x.gsi.gov.uk marking your response with 'CCAEP Consultation' in the subject field of your email.
