Political Will

Political Will :

"The greatest challenge facing emergency preparedness is one of political will: Mustering the courage to spend political capital and scarce dollars on stopping a problem before it appears. In the past, policy-makers have preferred to wait for problems to develop and then fund solutions instead of prevention. But Hurricane Katrina has shown that that gamble is not worth the risks". (Little Hoover Commission, Safeguarding the Golden State, 2006, 64)
