Emergencies
The Council has a role in Emergency Planning. If an emergency arises which causes significant trauma to, or threatens the Health & Safety of the community the Council will provide appropriate support and assistance where this would be of benefit. This will be done by co-operating with other local service providers in support of the emergency services and where there is no clear lead authority will assume a co-ordinating role in a local emergency situation.
The department has an emergency out of hours contact no: 078 8970 7083.
