The review will be led by Adrian Thomas who will consult with fire and rescue authorities, firefighters and representative bodies and report back in 2015. In announcing the review, Fire Minister Penny Mourdant said: "Firefighters put their lives on the line every day and deserve a workplace fully focused on fire prevention and protection. So we have a responsibility to each and every firefighter to make sure their conditions of service, some of which are decades old, fully support the challenges modern firefighters face every day. "This review will involve a massive piece of evidence gathering, in particular from firefighters themselves as they have expertise and ideas, to take the Service forward. I hope as many firefighters as possible will contribute.
