MCDEM Work Programme Status Report – April 2014

The MCDEM work programme for FY 2013/14 is shown in the Business Plan that was distributed to CDEM Groups at the beginning of the financial year. This report shows progress and developments against the themes shown in the Business Plan. Now that the Government has announced the budget for 2014/15 MCDEM will commence the detailed planning of priorities and the work programme. The appropriation for 2014/15 amounts to $11.102M, a slight increase from the $10.84M allocated to this year. One reason for the increase is an allocation that will enable us to develop a business case for public alerting discussed later in this report.

I encourage you to share this report with Managers of CDEM Group Offices and at your discretion, it can be shared with other officials in your Group.

Summary of Progress

1. Transfer to Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet

The transfer of accountability for the MCDEM and its work to the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC) occurred on 01 April 2014. At the same time the Ministry also relocated from 22 The Terrace to level 17 of Bowen House in the Parliamentary complex. No changes occurred to staff or to the location of the regional offices in Auckland and Christchurch. The policy staff and those involved in public information are now co-located with the rest of MCDEM staff on one open plan floor. The transition of staff and the routine work programme was accomplished smoothly. The second phase of the transition project is now underway and is focussed on transferring the responsibility for supporting the ICT systems in the NCMC from DIA to DPMC. Originally intended to be completed by the end of June 2014, this work is likely to be delayed while the opportunity is taken to investigate the potential for a public-private support arrangement to be put in place. DIA will continue to provide the support until a new arrangement is established.

2. Get Ready Week, September 21-27

The national advertising schedule for Get Ready Week has been confirmed and MCDEM is working with CDEM Groups to provide supporting resources that can be used. These include posters, logos, email and website images and bulk discounts for ordering bags and reprints of publications nationally.

National advertising for the week will not start until Sunday 21 September to ensure the Get Ready messages are not lost in the election campaign advertising.

3. New Zealand ShakeOut 2015

Initial planning for New Zealand ShakeOut 2015 has begun and details of an inter-agency planning team will come shortly. The planning team will confirm a date for the national earthquake drill, which is likely to be September or October 2015 to fit in with school terms. Similar to 2012, New Zealand ShakeOut will be part of the Get Ready Get Thru campaign and the National Exercise Programme. New Zealand ShakeOut will be the full-time focus of MCDEM’s Public Education Advisor for about a year from the date of the national drill. Support from Groups and other agencies, which were so willingly and expertly provided in 2012, will be crucial for success in 2015.

4. Emergency Management Information System (EMIS)

MCDEM conducted an EMIS Super User’s course with the assistance of the North and South Island EMIS trainers in April. Results of the EMIS user survey have been made available to CDEM Groups. Meanwhile testing on the new Alerts function has started while a number of other enhancements are on track for completion by the end of the financial year. A user group is being formed and will meet in June to agree system simplification.

5. Review of the National CDEM Plan and Guide

The revised National CDEM Plan (revised Plan) has completed a number of critical steps including:

· The Minister of Civil Defence approved on 12 January 2014 the final draft of revised Plan and agreed to it commencing the government approval and regulation making process.

· The Readiness and Response Board of ODESC (the Committee of Officials’ for Domestic and External Security Coordination) on 7 February 2014 noted the final draft of the revised Plan and the arrangements and amendments it contains.

· Drafting the revised Plan as a Regulation by the Parliamentary Counsel Office was completed in April 2014.

· Cabinet Committee approved on 15 May 2014 to issue the revised Plan for public consultation and to table the revised Plan in the House.

The revised Plan has been amended to incorporate the feedback provided in 2010 prior to the Christchurch earthquake, the Findings of various reviews and the recommendations and advancements in national CDEM planning that have occurred since the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. The major amendments to the revised Plan include:

· Updating terminology and references to legislation and agency names to reflect current arrangements.

· Providing a more user-friendly document that gives a consistent level and type of information.

· Revise the purpose, objectives and scope of the Plan to more adequately reflect its full intent and scope.

· Amending areas of the Plan that were identified as lacking clarity, to provide for a greater understanding of roles and responsibilities.

· Incorporating recommendations and findings of the Review of the CDEM Response to the 22 February 2011 Christchurch Earthquake and the Review of Emergency Welfare Arrangements.

The next steps are to release the revised Plan for public consultation (for 40 working days) and to table it in the House (for 90 days). This is scheduled to commence on 23 May 2014 and will close on 25 July 2014. Public consultation will be advertised in several metropolitan newspapers, and the document will be made available on the Ministry’s website (www.civildefence.govt.nz). CDEM Groups have been made aware of the impending public consultation via email and will be reminded at the time of its release with further emails as well as via e-Bulletin articles.

6. Corrective Action Plan

The majority of the actions that comprise the Corrective Action Plan arising from the review of the Christchurch response are on target to be completed within the projected timeframes.

Progress in some of the key components of the CAP are covered elsewhere in this update.

The revised Coordinated Incident Management System (CIMS) has been finalised and published. Consultation on a concept for the establishment of a ‘cadre of experienced emergency managers’ is now underway.

Contact: David Coetzee (04) 817 8580 david.coetzee@dpmc.govt.nz

7. Review of Arrangements for Delivery of Welfare Services in Emergencies

The Welfare Corrective Action Plan was distributed in April 2013 to CDEM Groups and agencies that play a role in delivering emergency welfare services in an emergency. The corrective actions are being worked through and have informed the revision of the Welfare Services section of the National CDEM Plan. Changes implemented in 2013 included:

· Transition to Welfare Coordination Groups (WCG) and Civil Defence Centres (CDC).

· Confirmation of the continued use of the term ‘Welfare Manager’ – including in the revised Welfare Services section of the National CDEM Plan.

· Inclusion in the revised National CDEM Plan confirmation of the nine welfare sub-functions and responsible/support agencies.

· Transition of the overarching responsibility for welfare services from MSD to MCDEM (and therefore to involve CDEM Groups) once the new Plan is implemented (likely to be in 2015).

The focus for 2014 includes the following:

· Continued engagement with agencies and CDEM Groups on the arrangements in the draft revised National CDEM Plan and the supporting Guide.

· CDEM Group Welfare Forum was held on 19-20 March 2014 in Auckland.

· Commencement of the project to review the Welfare in an Emergency Director’s Guideline (DGL 11/10), which will be issued for sector consultation later in 2014.

Contact: Grant Morris (04) 817 8581 grant.morris@dpmc.govt.nz

9. Publications - Review, Development and Consultation

A number of the Ministry’s publications are currently being reviewed or developed. These include:

· Lifeline Utilities and CDEM: Director’s Guideline (review and amalgamation of DGL 3/02 and BPG 1/03). The document was issued for sector consultation in October 2013, and is currently being finalised and will be published by 30 June 2014.

· Logistics: Director’s Guideline. A workshop with stakeholders was on 15 May 2014. Sector consultation on the draft document will occur in mid-2014.

· CDEM Group Planning: Director’s Guideline. A survey seeking stakeholder feedback on this publication was issued in July 2013 and informed the development of the current draft. Sector consultation on the draft document will occur in mid-2014.

· Recovery Management: Director’s Guideline (review and amalgamation of IS 5/05 Focus on Recovery and DGL 4/05 Recovery Management). A survey seeking stakeholder feedback on this publication was issued in February 2014 and is being used to inform the development of the current draft. A workshop with stakeholders is being held on 24 July (being hosted by the Waikato CDEM Group). Sector consultation will occur in late 2014 or early 2015.

· Welfare in an Emergency: Director’s Guideline. A survey seeking stakeholder feedback on this publication was issued in February 2014, and is being used to inform the development of the current draft. Sector consultation on the draft document will occur in late 2014.

10. Review of the legislation for recovery from an emergency

The Minister of Civil Defence agreed in August 2013 that the first stage of the review of the framework for recovery will comprise a review of the CDEM Act to develop proposals for generic provisions in the Act for recovery from emergencies of small to large (but not significant) scale.

MCDEM appreciates the input to date from CDEM Groups, which was used in developing a set of draft policy proposals to amend the CDEM Act. In May 2014, the Minister agreed in principle to these proposals, which now require further work to round out the details. CDEM Group input will be sought on this work to assist in finalising the proposals. This will likely occur over the next few months.

A final set of policy proposals to amend the CDEM Act is now likely to be submitted to Cabinet after September 2014. The legislative processes to amend the Act are likely to then extend into 2015.

11. Tsunami Risk Management

Consultation on the draft standard for the use of sirens in tsunami warnings has been extended to 20 May at the request of CDEM Groups.

Contact: David Coetzee (04) 817 8580 david.coetzee@dpmc.govt.nz

12. MCDEM Website Redevelopment

Redevelopment of the MCDEM website, www.civildefence.govt.nz, has been transferred to DPMC. MCDEM has been emailing updates to Group Managers, asking them to forward the messages to EMO’s and ICT staff. MCDEM has also copied the updates to PIM staff for information.

The redevelopment project will require a small amount of work by your ICT staff but no other costs will be required by Groups. Your ICT staff will need to check the links between the websites to make sure they will work correctly so that changes to your Group’s emergency status will be automatically flagged on the MCDEM website and the public directed to your website for detailed information about the emergency.

The target date for MCDEM’s new website to be live is 1 July 2014.

Contact: Vince Cholewa (04) 817 8560 vince.cholewa@dpmc.govt.nz

13. Public Alerting

We are working with MBIE on the development of an emergency services public alerting and 111 calling App. In addition we will also commence a business case on cell broadcasting in the new financial year following a successful budget bid for funds to do this work.

Contact: David Coetzee (04) 817 8580 david.coetzee@dpmc.govt.nz

14. CDEM Resilience Fund

Applications for the 2014/15 CDEM Resilience Fund have been reviewed and allocated. $1.4M was requested of the $889k available. The priorities established by the CEG Chair’s Forum were taken into consideration during assessment of applications along with factors such as national applicability, work based on the results of the monitoring and evaluation programme and whether the project could be considered core business.

Applications for the 2015/16 CDEM Resilience Fund will close at the end of July in an effort to align the CDEM Resilience Fund with local government budget preparations.

Conclusion

I have been very pleased with the manner in which the transfer of MCDEM to DPMC has taken place. Despite the upheaval involved, progress on our work programme and our readiness to activate the NCMC have been maintained. I attribute this to the efforts of those in MCDEM involved in planning the move and their ability to resolve the myriad of issues and irritations that arose. Downstream we will be working with the other elements of DPMC to share approaches to managing national security risks and enhancing resilience with a view to greater harmonisation of crisis management procedures.

It is also pleasing to see the team attain milestones with the draft of the National CDEM Plan and the publication of the new version of CIMS. Both projects indicate evolutionary improvements to the way in which we conduct civil defence emergency management.

Yours sincerely
