The review team have now begun their consultations on fire safety legislation and enforcement with all known interested parties. These include the Fire Brigades Union, the Chief and Assistant Fire Officers Association, the National Association of Fire Officers and the Fire Service college. They are being assisted by a small contact group which includes a fire brigade chief officer and are also proposing to consult a selection of individual senior fire service staff.
