the continuity of government
Continuity of government refers to the plans and procedures that ensure government functions can continue safely during emergencies such as natural disasters, attacks, or pandemics. It involves preparing leadership, communication, and essential services so that decision-making and critical operations remain operational even in crises. These measures help maintain stability, protect national security, and ensure the government can promptly respond to and recover from unexpected events, preserving the nation's governance and public trust.
