I assume the Deputy is referring to the National Emergency Response Co-ordinating Committee that sat daily during the severe weather period from 8 to 15 January 2010 and again on 21 January 2010. My Department was represented by an Assistant Secretary, supported by the Principal Advisor (engineering), a Principal Officer and other Departmental staff.
