WAY FORWARD

Divisional EOCs need to get Agencies (FRA, FEA, and WAF) to synchronise data from

Divisional to national level to ensure that statistics tally.

The National Emergency Operations Centre is heavily reliant on information provided by the Divisional Emergency Operation Centre. CCD EOC needs to be more pro-active in getting timely updates to the NEOC.

Critical area of operation is in the Eastern Division (especially Lomaiviti) and this is area that needs support for timely updates

All Disaster Service liaison officers to report to NEOC for timely updates (Education, FEA, WAF, FRA, DINFO and Health)

Total support needs to be rendered to the Divisional Coordinators to ensure timely dissemination of data for comprehensive response planning.

NEOC to liaise closely with Divisional EOCs for coordination of information

Conduct of assessment for the distribution of ration and other relief efforts
