Safety Advisory Group for Events (SAGE) Report 2012
15/11/2012 - Safety Advisory Group for Events (SAGE) Report 2012
(1) To RECONFIRM s.101 of the Events Policy which states “If it is the collective view of the SAGE that the event should not go ahead then this will be communicated to the Public Protection Service Manager and Divisional Director of Environmental Services who will formally write to the event organiser. Each SAGE member retains the right to object to any event”; and
(2) To AMEND the Events Policy (November 2011) to include the following paragraph:
"6.2. The SAGE chair will have the discretion to determine which events are considered by the SAGE - based on risk. This decision will be dependent, amongst other things, on the nature of the event, location, participants and includes events which are likely to cause significant disruption to traffic and parking arrangements. This risk based provision will be exercised following consultation with other members of the SAGE where necessary."
