14.    Branch Risk Register and Operational Plan 2016/17

To enable a more strategic approach to planning disaster management operational activities a risk
register and operational plan have been developed. These plans have been developed in
alignment with the IGEM’s Emergency Management Assurance Framework (EMAF), adopted by
Council at its Ordinary Meeting of 21 July 2016.

These plans identify opportunities for improvement in Council’s disaster management, calculate
risk exposure and implement a cycle of continuous improvement. A total of 11 projects have been
identified as a priority for completion during the current financial year. Progress on 10 projects will
be reported in the quarterly Planning & Infrastructure Departmental update reports. One project
will be reported on in Council’s Operational Plan update reports.
