Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence
Update on Civil Defence: Discussion
Ms Emer Dalton:
Towards 2030 and progressing some of its priorities have been impacted by Covid-19. Saying that, the implementation is ongoing. There are nine actions points that are shared between the local authorities and the Department. They are all on track and in train. The VIMS system, which we have touched upon twice today, will really enhance some of those action points. That will hopefully be a big win this year in relation to that. It is ongoing.
Reporting on Toward 2030 happens internally within the Department of Defence to its management board. We also update the County and City Management Association, CCMA, on that, twice a year.
