Summary of major revisions made to emergency plan of action:
The main change on the operation is represented by the increased number of the vulnerable people assisted. The number of targeted people to support under this operation will be increased from 10,000 to 15,000 people. The needs in the field have also changed due to the development of the situation, and the hygiene and food kits have been adapted to those needs. The quantity of the procured items has been modified, based on the lower negotiated prices. The “restoring family links” (RFL) services, first aid (FA), hygiene items distribution and hygiene promotion activities need to be prolonged. As a result, the operational timeframe will be extended by two months, i.e. until 2 March 2016. The Slovenian Rec Cross, as part of the future European Red Cross Red Crescent contingency planning system, has at its disposal a prepositioned stock of basic relief items in its regional warehouses in the regions which are located on the route of the migrants` flow, outside of this DREF operation.
In regard to the assistance provided, with staff and volunteers overwhelmed, the National Society is focusing its efforts on strengthening the volunteer management system and monitoring the deployment procedures concurrently with this operation. Additionally, some IFRC regional support mission costs have been added to the operational budget.
Regarding the budget, it will be revised reach CHF 316,786 to accommodate the changes with an increase of CHF 30,712
