The State Emergency Management Committee (SEMC) has responsibility for the development maintenance and review of the State Emergency Management Policy and plans (Emergency Management Act 2005, sections 17-19).
To ensure these arrangements maintain their relevancy and ability to manage emergencies in Western Australia, they must undergo a process of continuous improvement.
In addition to the State Emergency Management Policy and plans, a suite documents support these strategic arrangements. These documents must be reviewed annually for statement of fact changes and undergo a comprehensive review every 5 years in accordance with State EM Preparedness Procedures 3.1-3.5.
When developing or reviewing these documents, a consultation strategy must be created to obtain feedback from relevant stakeholders identified as being affected by the documents (State EM Preparedness Procedure 3.5).
