We all rely on a variety of services to run our homes and businesses and for everyday necessities such as light, heat and water. Failure of these services can cause inconvenience particularly if long-term and accompanied by severe weather or due to high dependence for health or other reasons.
The Emergency Planning Unit works closely with utility providers to ensure that satisfactory and safe sytems are provided for the provision of these services, and work together in ensuring that interruption to supplies is minimised and procedures in place to effectively alieviate problems associated with supply loss. |  |
