Fire and Rescue Services: Waltham Abbey
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether his Department has conducted a recent risk assessment of fire service provision in Waltham Abbey.
Answered by Samantha Dixon
On-call firefighters play a vital role in responding to emergencies in their local communities. The government is grateful for their dedication.
Responsibility for managing local risk and demand sits with each fire and rescue authority (FRA) and its fire and rescue service, via their local Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP). This includes making decisions on how the service’s resources are organised and deployed.
