This template is provided as guidance to help you plan your event and complete it – or a version of it - as a fully comprehensive event management plan (EMP). It is not an exhaustive list of everything you will need to consider.\nYour EMP is an essential document to aid in the planning of your event, and to ensure it is implemented safely. It is a working document, and – following the completion of a first draft - should be updated, reviewed and amended as your planning progresses.\nOther EMP templates are available online and can be used if preferred.\nThis template is provided for guidance only and the list of headings is not exhaustive.\nPlease add as much detail under each section as you have available; the size of the text boxes is not indicative of how much information should be included; they are expandable.\nThis template is provided for guidance only and the list of headings is not exhaustive.\nFurther information is available from “HSG195 The Event Safety Guide” (commonly known as The Purple Guide), published by the Health and Safety Executive: \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://www.thepurpleguide.co.uk/index.php\" \u0014The Purple Guide\u0015\nAlongside your Event Management Plan, you are also required to submit:\nPublic Liability Insurance documentation (PLI)\nEvent site plan and Traffic Management Plan (as applicable)\nEvent risk assessment (RA)\nAny other safety documents relevant to the event, e.g., gas safety certificates, fairground ride inspection certificates, food hygiene certificates etc.\nEMP completed by (print name), as or on behalf of the Event Organiser:\n__________________________________________________________________________\nSigned: __________________________________________________________________________\nDated: __________________________________________________________________________\nThe acceptance of these documents by Somerset Council in no way confirms that this authority acknowledges your compliance with health and safety legislation.\nThe latest plan(s) submitted will be held on file and may be referred to in the case of incident or complaint.\nThe purpose of the event plan is to aid you with your control of the health and safety of employees, attendees and volunteers at the event. The plan should not be viewed as a document in isolation but should form part of your overall event health and safety management strategy.\nSomerset Council aims to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) at all times. To see how we handle personal information or request information under the FOIA or EIR, visit \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://www.somerset.gov.uk/finance-performance-and-legal/information-requests/\" \u0014Information requests (somerset.gov.uk)\u0015","cbCaio5BSzqggFoL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaio5BSzqggFoL","docx",62027,"English","# How to use this template\n## What the EMP supports and how it should be maintained\n## Required documents alongside the EMP\n## Sign-off and council notes","[{\"question\":\"When is an Event Management Plan (EMP) required?\",\"answer\":\"An EMP is required by the Local Authority when an event is held on Council-owned land or premises by an external/private organiser.\"},{\"question\":\"How should the EMP be treated during planning?\",\"answer\":\"The EMP is a working document; after completing an initial draft, it should be updated, reviewed, and amended as planning progresses.\"},{\"question\":\"What documents must be submitted alongside the EMP?\",\"answer\":\"Submissions include Public Liability Insurance documentation, an event site plan and Traffic Management Plan (as applicable), an event risk assessment, and any other relevant safety documents.\"}]","Event Management Plan (EMP) template - Somerset Council - Taunton and West Somerset area | DOCX",1788272707]
