The Department is given standing disaster relief and recovery duties
What the document says“(A) leading and coordinating the disaster-related responsibilities of the Department under the National Response Framework, the National Disaster Recovery Framework, and the National Mitigation Framework;”
The section makes the offices and officers of the Department of Housing and Urban Development responsible for leading its disaster duties under the three national frameworks, coordinating its disaster relief, recovery, resiliency and mitigation programs, supporting communities moving displaced people from shelters to permanent housing, working with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Small Business Administration to align rules and cut duplication, promoting best practices in mitigation and land use planning, coordinating technical assistance for grantees with limited capacity, and helping State, Tribal, and local governments build recovery capacity and pre-disaster plans.
What the document actually says“(A) leading and coordinating the disaster-related responsibilities of the Department under the National Response Framework, the National Disaster Recovery Framework, and the National Mitigation Framework;”
The housing agency must lead its own disaster work. Three national plans say what the government does after a storm. The agency must pull its part of each one together.
A framework is a plan for how agencies work together. Before this the housing agency's role was spread out. This puts the duty in one place.
