Providing Public Health, Environmental, Scientific and Technical Advice to Resilience Partnerships in Scotland

October 2022

13. Multiple STAC coordination

13. Multiple STAC coordination

  1. The arrangements described in Section 12 (Scientific and technical advice when multiple Resilience Partnerships have been established) should be viewed above all else as a vehicle for ensuring coordinated and consistent advice from national organisations. Unless there are exceptional circumstances that require the direct intervention of the Scottish Government, the response to an emergency will be coordinated by the local RP which may apply any advice it is given to its own particular circumstances. SGoRR when activated will receive key points from STAC advice through the RP regular updates to SGoRR.
  2. There may be circumstances where RPs agree to establish a national Multi-Agency Coordination Centre (MACC) and have a ‘national Primary STAC’, which can then inform/advise all RP STACs who would act as ‘Secondary STACs’.
