In which of the following situations may the ERT be activated?

The Emergency Response Team (ERT) is typically activated in situations that require a swift and effective response to critical incidents, particularly those involving potential violence or high-risk scenarios inside a detention facility. Cell extractions involve removing a detainee from their cell, often due to a refusal to comply with orders or if they pose a threat to themselves or others. This situation requires a specialized team trained to manage and control volatile environments to ensure safety for both staff and inmates.

In contrast, routine inspections, staff meetings, and office emergencies do not typically necessitate the specialized skills and tactical response that the ERT provides. These scenarios do not present the same level of risk or urgency that would trigger the need for a rapid and coordinated response from the Emergency Response Team. Therefore, the activation of the ERT is specifically appropriate for the critical nature of cell extractions.
