Practical Advice

 

The Vale of Glamorgan Council puts in place both statutory and non-statutory emergency plans to guide them in the event of a major emergency.

 

What is an emergency?

It is "...an exceptional event that exceeds the normal response capacity of an Organisation. It is a serious disruption to life such as the death of or injury to large numbers of people, extensive damage to property, or wide spread contamination of the environmentIt requires the implementation of special arrangements by one or more of the Emergency Services or the Local Authority..."

The Vale of Glamorgan Council will look initially to support the Emergency Services, and in the longer term to restore and regenerate the community.
