Government establishes National Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction to coordinate civil protection

The National Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction has been established as a collegiate body to coordinate disaster prevention and management activities (Council of Ministers Agreement of 21 April 2026). Its creation is based on Royal Decree 207/2024 and Law 40/2015 to improve response capabilities to disaster risks across the national territory.

In 2 key points

  1. Establishment of the National Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (Acuerdo del Consejo de Ministros de 21 de abril de 2026)
  2. Regulatory framework based on Royal Decree 207/2024 and Law 40/2015 (ref. indice BOE)

How it affects those involved

The regulation does not impose direct obligations on companies or individuals, but rather modifies the administrative coordination structure for civil protection and emergencies. The primary effect is the centralisation of disaster risk management under a new collegiate body, aiming for a more integrated state response to catastrophes.
