1.14: Pandemic Planning
Guide and support integrated contingency planning for an influenza pandemic to minimise the impact on the ACT community. Other Information:
In December 2007 the ACT Government released the ACT Pandemic Planning Framework. The aim of the framework is to guide and
support integrated contingency planning for an influenza pandemic to minimise the impact on the ACT community. ACT Health
proactively monitors, develops and revises current policy and strategic operational planning for an influenza pandemic. Under
the ACT Pandemic Planning Framework, ACT Health developed the Australian Capital Territory Health Management Plan for Pandemic
Influenza 2007, which details the health sector’s capacity to respond in the event of an influenza pandemic. ACT Health will
continue its operational planning in line with national policy to prevent and manage an influenza pandemic and its consequences
in the ACT.
