Criminal Law & the British Fire Service
The people of the British Fire Service on occasions do get involved with aspects
of Criminal Law Enforcement which are covered under certain Acts of Parliament,
for example an offence stated in Section 7 of the Fire
Precautions Act is a Criminal Offence and when dealing with these occurrences
the procedure must be conducted in the correct manner and in accordance with the
Police And Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (PACE)
I do not (and could not) intend to deal with all the intricacies of Criminal Law as regard to the British Fire Service and legal procedures. What is intended however is an overview of the background and any aspects that I can cover.
