Dear West Midlands Fire Service,

Given the potential of an Outbreak of apocalyptic levels which could result in A Catastrophic Zombie scenario, and that you as a front facing public service would be at risk. I wanted to know if you as an organisation had any Strategy or plan in place to prevent (or if unable to do so) at least contain the situation should it arise.

Yours faithfully,

Michael Hardcastle

West Midlands Fire Service has emergency contingency plan, the plan, is
generic in nature and designed to provide a robust response to a wide
range of possible scenarios.

 

In accordance with the Civil Contingencies Act 2004, the emergency
planning process is 
underpinned by local risk assessments which evaluate and prioritise
relevant hazards and 
threats according to their associated risks.  

[1]http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2004... c

 

This risk assessment process takes account of the National Risk Register
which is prepared by the Cabinet Office.  The National Risk Register does
not identify Zombie Apocalypse as a source of risk in the UK.
