Session 5: Energy, Transport & Telecomms Infrastructure Security
Energy, transport and telecomms infrastructure are three key elements in any modern industrial nation and are indeed often used as a measure of a nations stage of development.
Whether it’s the oil, gas or electricity used to power the transport, heat our homes and power our businesses, national and international telecommunications or passenger travel through airports to rail, or freight through our ports and harbours to road and rail, power, transport and telecommunications are the crucial economic lifeblood of any modern industrial economy.
Therefore should they be damaged; by terrorist attack, by natural or by man-made disasters, they have the potential to cause damage to the economy far in excess of any physical damage they may incur. The problem for the authorities, operators and agencies is to ensure the right balance of security, safety and resilience in facilities that are widely dispersed and in the case of transport, public places.

Session 7: International Agency Co-operation Delivering Enhanced Command and Control
Agency co-operation is the key to success, whether that is on a national basis or international basis. In the current challenge times for our security and resilience professionals, co-operation and co-ordination is vital to ensure effective command and control of a situation. So what are the key enablers to making it work and how can improvements be made in the current practices for more efficient delivery?

Session 8: Emergency Preparedness and Response Coordination
Getting the right help, to the right place, and the right people is about communications, planning and organisation. How best do central and local government and the emergency services co-ordinate their efforts, and co-operate with infrastructure operators, to bring relief to the point of most need when national infrastructure is most challenged?
