The impact of terrorism
The impact of terrorism July 7th was remembered in the UK and across the world as a sensitive reminder of the horror of 'Terrorism' and the impact it has on the public in terms of safety and security. Such acts test our Emergency Services to their respective limits and it is to their great credit that they respond so well which is appreciated by the general public at large. At the heart of any incident and it's eventual successful outcome is 'Communications'. At any debrief of an incident a series of issues connected with communications will ensure serious debate. BAPCO's whole existence revolves around communications within the Emergency Services and with the advent of the 'Civil Contingencies Act' includes a large number of other agencies. All our workshops, which will be held again in autumn, will be directed to ensuring we are assisting the debate about improving our communications assisted by our large 'User Community'. I urge to attend one of these workshops and your presence and the experience you will bring will be a direct benefit to other participants. August is a time for holidays and reflection and I hope you enjoy the well earned rest
Tim O’Connor President, BAPCO
