• 9 submissions – Clear use of risk assessment to inform decisions about response and resource planning.
• 14 submissions – Some evidence that risk assessment is used to inform decisions about response and resource planning.
• 11 submissions – Little evidence that risk assessment is used to inform decisions about response and resource planning.
