Abstract

This article reviews the issue of legal liability during the response to and recovery from disasters. It considers the potential liability of responders, including those who are part of the Australian Defence Force (ADF), and discusses the impact of amendments to the Defence Act 1903 (Cth) (Defence Act ) and what those amendments may mean for disaster management in the future.
