Northern Regions NI188 Advanced Workshop (25 March 2010)
Hosted by the Government Offices for Yorkshire & Humber and the North East, a dedicated workshop took place for local authorities that were aiming for high performance against NI188, i.e. levels 3 and 4 in the next year. The workshop featured sharing of best practice, barriers to progress, learning between regions and options appraisal of adaptive measures.
Outcomes from the day:
Common Barriers were:
- Embedding adaptation action across the LSP partners and still in some Council Departments
- Poor understanding of the terminology – ‘adaptation’ V ‘mitigation’
- Resources of Councils to lead work and for partners to implement
Further help that would be useful:
- Further sharing of progress and tools/templates developed between authorities and regions – perhaps co-ordinated nationally.
- Further information on risk management approaches and specific information on adaptive responses on particular themes
- An agenda and associated presentations are provided on in the related documents section below.
