ERM Studies in Tasmania
Background
Each level of government has a different set of roles and responsibilities in relation to natural disaster management. Commonwealth, State and Territory Governments have established organisational arrangements and lines of reporting to undertake disaster mitigation and effectively prepare for, and deal with, emergencies, including natural disasters. Local Government involvement is an integral part of these arrangements.
An effective national framework for natural disaster management requires a high level of collaboration and coordination at all levels of government, and with non-government
stakeholders.
State and Territory Governments
State and Territory Governments have as a primary responsibility to encourage and support Local Governments and remote and Indigenous communities, to undertake disaster risk assessments and mitigation
measures.
Local Governments also have responsibilities, in partnership with States and Territories, to contribute to the safety and well-being of their communities which means they have an important role participating in local natural disaster management.
