National Risk Assessment in The Netherlands : A Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Approach
bookPart
Nowadays, National Safety and Security issues receive much attention
in many countries. In 2007, the Dutch government approved a National Safety and
Security Strategy based on a multi-criteria analysis approach to classify potential
threats and hazards. The general methodology of this Dutch National Risk Assessment
and the specific multi-criteria-based approach developed for it are presented
in this paper. Five issues are discussed here: the objectives, requirements and criteria
of the risk assessment; the multi-criteria methods used; the pluralistic weighting
approach; the sensitivity and robustness analyses; and the outcomes of the Dutch
National Risk Assessment.
