Purpose and Scope

The purpose of the Plan is to establish a framework for a crisis management response to a significant emergency event, occurring within the Brisbane CBD, which requires a coordinated interagency and community response. The Plan will also provide a framework for continuing public education, the building of preparedness capacity, training and the review of the Plan and its strategies.

The Plan is ‘all hazards’ focusing on crisis management immediately after an incident and prior to the implementation of existing disaster management arrangements.

This Plan is to be read and, where necessary, activated in conjunction with existing crisis management plans (including counter-terrorism) and Commonwealth, State and Local Government consequence management plans and obligations.
