dc.description.abstractClimate change can lead to more extreme weather situations such as floodings, water nuisance, heat and drought. When Vital & Vulnerable functions are disrupted because of these effects, they can pose a threat to national security, people, environment or the economy. National ministries are responsible for the protection of V&K functions, but due to knowledge gaps and other complexities these responsibilities will partly be decentralized to the provincial level through kernteams. The Province of North-Holland has offered to coordinate the kernteam of Brzo functions (V&K functions oil and chemistry), but is unsure of the role it should take in order to involve all relevant parties and meet the wishses of Brzo companies. Based on this research, it is recommended that the Province should let the kernteam focus on: • Gaining trust of Brzo companies; • cooperation with and among Brzo companies • representation of smaller and larger companies early on in participation processes; • helping governments with the development of more concrete guidelines concerning climate adaptation measures for Brzo companies to follow; • being an impartial, central point or facilitator where stakeholders can turn to with questions or issues concerning the interpretation or implementation of measures, or when problems arise with other stakeholders.en_US
