The National Emergency Management Ministers’ Meeting

Home Affairs
The National Emergency Management Ministers’ Meeting (NEMMM) facilitates emergency management portfolio ministers from their respective jurisdictions to work collaboratively to drive national cooperation and consistency on enduring strategic issues in emergency/disaster management and resilience. The NEMMM also addresses emerging issues requiring cross-border collaboration and performs policy and standard setting functions. This may include cross-portfolio issues, such as building, planning, land management, infrastructure, communications, data and digital, health, science, research, environment and education. The NEMMM reports to National Cabinet annually and is supported by the Australia New Zealand Emergency Management Committee (ANZEMC), the peak senior officials’ government committee responsible for emergency management.
