The signing of the Memorandum highlights the importance of the cooperation of the government sector with the private sector and volunteers, which is necessary especially in times of crisis due to natural or man-made disasters.
In its announcement, JCRR expresses its warm thanks to the UDT Reserve Association and the Ayia Napa Marina for their response and contribution to further strengthening the capabilities of the Republic’s SAR system, especially in the event of a sea accident close to the shore.
Efforts will be made to develop more partnerships throughout unoccupied Cyprus in order to further minimize response time and maximize efficiency.
