Emergency Mobile Alert - Testing on Sunday 26 November 2017- between 6 and 7pm

Rahul Deo Neighbourly Lead from Rangiora

Hi Neighbours,
A gentle reminder for the Emergency Mobile Alert
.

www.civildefence.govt.nz...

The Ministry of Civil Defence & Emergency Management (MCDEM) is leading the implementation of a new nationwide emergency alert channel. A nationwide test of Emergency Mobile Alert is happening on 26 November 2017 between 6 and 7pm.

The Emergency Mobile Alert should appear automatically on your phone’s screen with a unique and penetrating warning sound. As Emergency Mobile Alert is about keeping you safe, you won’t be able to opt-out of receiving Emergency Mobile Alert.

It is expected around one third of phones will initially be able to receive the alerts. This number is expected to rise substantially over time as people replace their phones with newer models.
