Civil Defence supports the frontline emergency services, e.g. in dealing with severe weather or searching for missing people.

Civil Defence operates at national level under the Department of Defence. Services, such as, Casualty, Rescue, Auxiliary Fire, Welfare, Monitoring and Communications, are delivered locally through Local Authorities.
