The specific national service could be subtagged, such as disaster_response=*
Why not use the present operator tag to specify the organisation?
Yes of course, good point.
... for the offices, agencies, ministries that are purely organisational
office=disaster_response might be suitable?
Yes I like that.

Thanks Greg for the analysis. I don't see OSM capable of representing the planning and management
structure or command chain in those institutions. I see the need however, to tag physical
infrastructure, such as garages for special equipment, storage for supplies, and places where
responder teams exercise.
So this is what I assume emergency=disaster_response is good for, any planning and managing
locations should go to the office=* namespace.
