Premier and Cabinet		 State Emergency Management Plan (SEMP) Review The SEMP is a key document in the SA EM framework as it articulates the authorising environment including governance and decision making processes, roles and responsibilities for how the State prepares for, responds to and recovers from emergencies.  $                 149,000
  The project will ensure SA’s emergency management arrangements are contemporary and fit for purpose, based on State’s operating context and risk profile. Inadequate governance could lead to reduced outcomes for the community and increased loss of life, property and environment as a result of disasters.
