The CCA| places certain duties on all Category 1 responders as defined by the Act of which the KFRS is one. One of these duties is the formation of the Kent Resilience Forum. The purpose of this Forum is to ensure that there is an appropriate level of preparedness to enable an effective multi agency response to emergencies which may have a significant impact on the Communities of Kent Fire & Rescue Service.
The act requires Category 1 responders to maintain the plans for preventing emergencies; reducing, controlling or mitigating the effects of emergencies; and taking other action in the event of emergencies. These should draw from risk assessments and should have regard for the arrangements to warn, inform and advise the public at the time of an emergency.
