Recommendation 31
31
Cabinet Office leadership on resilience lacks external engagement and a clear plan.
Conclusion
The Cabinet Office’s leadership in this area appears to be inward focused rather than engaging with other Government departments and wider society. What is required is a clear plan and consistent messaging with well-defined leadership responsibilities—resilience and readiness are not an internal government matter; they require whole of society engagement. (Conclusion, Paragraph 124)
