Disaster or crisis
In serious incidents, the (local) government can deploy crisis.nl. Is there a calamity in your area, but you can't find any information here? Then listen to your regional broadcaster or check the website of the municipality or the safety region.
A government agency can use crisis.nl to provide information about a disaster or serious calamity. The decision to deploy the crisis.nl website lies with a government agency, such as a municipality, security region or the state.
