My Department is represented on the Government Task Force on Emergency Planning, which is chaired my colleague, the Minister of State at the Department of Defence.  In that context, my Department is participating in the work of the Task Force in relation to the Be Winter Ready campaign.  My Department will use its existing community networks to disseminate the Be Winter Ready message and help ensure that communities and individuals are ready for the Winter.

As my Department is not a lead Department for this year's campaign,  I do not envisage any direct expenditure by my Department on the 2019 Be Winter Ready campaign.
