A proposed law says a sector response plan can talk about the jobs of people who provide essential services. You will see it discuss roles of providers, Emergency Management Committees, and the Director-General. It can also cover how they share information and work together. A sector response plan can include other important things to handle big disruptions. It does not force anyone to do specific tasks or jobs. You should know it is part of a plan to help in emergencies.
