	abstract = {<p>This section provides an overview of the types of state level arrangements typically in place during emergency events. The case examples are from the states of Victoria, New South Wales, Tasmania and Queensland. In the event of a significant emergency (either predicted or in play), a State Emergency Management Team or Committee is formed comprising of multiple agencies for both the response and recovery phases. The fire service agencies are a member of State Emergency Management Team and take the role of the combat agency during major bushfires. State emergency management plans in different jurisdictions describe the arrangements for multi-agency coordination to support combat agency response. State arrangements also make provision for rescue, recovery and the relief of communities affected by emergency events</p>},
