The meeting, presided over by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, also decided to establish a National Flood Response and Coordination Center, which will include federal ministers, military representatives, chief ministers, and specialists, to offer an appropriate institutional response to the disaster.
Additionally, it was decided to remove all unauthorised structures from the banks of rivers and other waterways.

The top civil and military leadership, including the heads of the three services, the chief ministers of Sindh and Azad Jammu and Kashmir, leaders of allied parties, federal ministers, and senior representatives from Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir attended the conference via video link.
The PM Office stated in a series of tweets following the meeting that the Center would act as a link between government agencies, donors, and disaster management organisations.
