The Queensland Government is delivering one of the most significant bodies of change to Queensland's disaster and emergency management system, ensuring we are best placed to continue delivering exceptional services to all Queenslanders.
Work is underway ahead of the 2024 natural disaster season, with the goal to modernise service delivery arrangements, simplify operational structures and focus resources.
As part of the reforms, the Queensland Police Service (QPS) will be expanded to include disaster management functions, marine rescue activities in the soon-to-be-established Marine Rescue Queensland (MRQ), and the State Emergency Service (SES).
