Abstract

Sydney’s submission for its 1992 bid to host the Summer Games of the XXVII Olympiad included the following statement: ‘Sydney has no history of natural disasters, so disaster planning for the Olympics has been based on the New South Wales Multiple Casualty, Emergency and Disaster Medical Response Plan (MEDPLAN).’
