good crisis management programs address all aspects of consequence management, communication being one of those. As it stands now, ICAO has moved their single crisis management document from guidance to policy, one step below regulation. That is an improvement. One the other hand, IATA has recently diminished its support to the emergency response planning task force, effectively disbanding it. So in this case IATA and ICAO are not on concert. They should be. Crisis management should be a permanent working group. Discussions on post accident responses should be regular agenda items and stay visible at the Director / CEO level.
