A TOUR D'HORIZON OF GOVERNMENT FIRE POLICY AND THE ROLE OF FIRE RESEARCH

摘要

Government recognises the need for evidence based policies and sees research as an important medium through which evidence can be gathered. A tour d'horizon of recent major policy changes in the duties of the Fire and Rescue Service, its objectives, and its operating arrangements, and the role of research in the development of those new policies will be of interest to both United Kingdom fire professionals and those from overseas.
