The Fire Standards Board has announced two Fire Standards which have been shared with services and all stakeholders for consultation.
Forming part of the suite of Fire Standards that relate to service delivery, the Fire Control Fire Standard is now open for consultation. Alongside this, a Fire Standard for Communications, Engagement and Consultation is also open.
Both consultations are open until 6 February 2023. You can find out how to take part in either consultation on the consultations page.
The Fire Control Fire Standard has been developed with input from the NFCC Fire Control Team, the NFCC Lead for Fire Control, Mobilising Officers Group and with fire control specialists from a wide range of fire and rescue services.
The Communications, Engagement and Consultation Fire Standard has been developed with input from FirePro, NFCC Communications teams and communications and collaboration specialists from a wide range of fire and rescue services.
The Board said that consultation responses will be considered, with a quality assurance process taking place prior to the launch of the final standards.
