Correct answer: B — Co-locate, communicate, co-ordinate, jointly understand risk and form shared situational awareness

JESIP is built on responders co-locating, communicating, co-ordinating, jointly understanding risk and forming a shared situational awareness, so that agencies act together effectively. A single service commanding the rest without dialogue, or services working in isolation, undermines the interoperability the principles promote. Withholding risk information endangers responders. Pearl: a joint understanding of risk underpins safe, coordinated multi-agency working.
