A

To achieve effective coordinated incident management across responding agencies by;

  • establishing common structures, functions, terminology used by agencies, yet;
  • within a framework that is flexible, modular, scalable so it can be tailored specifically
  • enabling agencies to develop their own processes, procedures, training
34
Q

Covered by other measures such as health promotion, the building code, or the resource management act 1991

37
Q

A

Aim to manage the consequences of hazards, support the effected communities, and establish the basis for recovery.

39

Compulsion
Entry
Direction
Removal

Some statutes require a state of emergency to be declared.

Some statutes require authorisation by appropriately appointed people

40

A

There are the fundamental tenents on which incident management is based.

  1. Responsive to community needs
  2. Flexibility
  3. Unity of effort
41
Q

A

Response personnel MUST

  • recognise and individuals rights
  • treat individuals with fairness and and dignity
  • ensure the needs of affected people and animals are identified

All met throughout the response and into recovery.

Must be able to Actively participate in a response rather than wait passively for assistance

42
Q

tenents

A

Flexibility allows CIMS to be Modular and scalable.

Therefore applicable to incidents that vary widely in terms of scale hazard or situational characteristics

43
Q

45
Q

CIMS Characteristics : Management by objectives

A

These are established by the controller assisted by the incident management team IMT who consult with governance on desired outcomes

Objectives are then communicated so unity of effort is achieved

46
Q

CIMS : Lead agency

A

A lead agency is the agency with a mandate to manage the response to an incident through legislation, under protocols, by agreement, or because it has the expertise in experience

This may change between risk reduction readiness response and recovery and if required authority or expertise changes

When the lead agency cannot be readily identified agencies may adopt a joint unified control structure

47
Q

CIMS : Lead / supporting agency responsibilities

Lead
Integration of support agencies into the response is a fundamental responsibility of lead agencies

Ensuring arrangements and plans are in place prior to incidents where they will have to lead

Should single agency response progress into a multi agency response the management structure expands to maintain effective control consistent with the scale and complexity of the response

The incident controller supported by the incident management team is responsible for overall direction

Supporting agencies need to be included in the incident control point ICP to ensure specialist knowledge and incorporation of agencies requirement and resources

52
Q

CIMS : Major Incident

A

When an incident level response becomes large-scale a full IMT may be required

More substantial and preprepared response coordination facilities may be required
