In order to effectively mitigate the risks identified in the national risk assessment, Member States should ensure consistent action at national level either by designating an authority to coordinate the national response or by establishing a mechanism for that purpose. Member States should ensure that the designated authority or the established mechanism has sufficient powers and resources to perform that task effectively and ensure an adequate response to the identified risks.
