1 hour ago | 29 views

Budget 2026 will fund the National Emergency Management Agency to implement modern technology systems, including a long-awaited common operating picture that provides real-time, shared information to improve emergency response coordination across New Zealand. The Emergency Management Sector Operational Systems (EMS-OS) programme will also enhance operational tools, upgrade the National Warning System, and incorporate AI to analyze data quickly for faster decision-making during disasters. This investment aims to boost New Zealand’s resilience to natural hazards by enabling faster, more effective responses, better situational awareness, and stronger coordination among agencies.
