Considering the heavy demand for logistics services including storage, road and air transport, the Logistics Cluster asked OCHA to coordinate the consolidation of priority in terms of cargo through the inter-cluster coordination group. The ICC group at its meeting on 15 June 2015 agreed to develop a list of priority emergency relief items and their destinations for airlifting. The resulting note below was endorsed by the Humanitarian Country Team on 15 July.Alignment with the flash appeal strategy: “The first priority of the response is to reach the worst affected and those in the farthest affected mountainous areas before the monsoons cause further damage and cut off access. Because of the urgency of delivering soon ... and given the limitations on the size, weight, and types of cargo that can be handled, the first focus will be on providing essential supplies to help these vulnerable populations through the rains. Typically these would include tarps, tools, blankets, food, water tablets, and other essential NFIs.”
