Details

The emergency preparedness, resilience and response (EPRR) concept of operations (CONOP) sets out UKHSA’s approach to systematically preparing for, responding to and recovering from health security incidents. These include:

  • infectious diseases
  • pandemics
  • chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) events
  • extreme adverse weather events
  • business continuity challenges
  • cyber security events

The CONOP applies across the whole of UKHSA.

It describes the UKHSA’s EPRR responsibilities:

  • as a Category 1 responder
  • as an executive agency of the Department of Health and Social Care
  • for devolved health security within England and across the UK on reserved health security matters
