Government 'committed' to responding to bushfire royal commission
Emergency Management Minister David Littleproud says the Royal Commission into Natural Disaster Arrangement, released on Friday, will be acted on by the government. “The commonwealth will now carefully and methodically consider the report and its recommendations, as will the states and territories, but we are committed to responding to and actioning many of the recommendations as soon as possible,” he said. The report is made up of 80 recommendations, with 14 directly for the Commonwealth, 23 for states and 41 to be shared responsibilities. “There are lessons for governments, essential service providers, insurers, charities, communities and individuals," Mr Littleproud said. “Importantly, the royal commission wasn’t focused solely on Commonwealth areas of responsibilities but examined how all Australian jurisdictions managed natural disaster arrangements, and critically, how we could work together even better in future to protect people, property and the environment.”
