The recent HMICFRS report into the London Fire Brigade identified that training and development plans for staff in the brigade were “inadequate.” Some staff have not had continuation training in risk-critical skills such as emergency fire engine driving and incident command for many years.

When can Londoners expect the gap in risk-critical skills training to be closed and incident command reassessed regularly at all levels of the service?
