1.4 ARRANGEMENTS FOR MONITORING AND REVIEW

Implementation of the findings of the risk assessments will be examined as part of the statutory inspections conducted by HM Fire Service Inspectorate. The HSE will also continue to conduct statutory inspections, to ensure good health and safety practice is being developed and maintained

In addition the generic risk assessments in volume three will undergo continuous monitoring and review, the purpose of which is to :

  • assess their utility to brigades
  • monitorquality
  • review the currency of content
  • amend as necessary - through JSCOPT

The HMFSI will provide the lead for this process which will be achieved through the work of a focus group representing:

  • FEPD
  • HMFSI + HMFSI(S)
  • CACFOA
  • FBU
  • CO-OPTED SPECIALISTS
The first major review will take place in March 1999 and as necessary thereafter. Comments on style, structure, content or indeed any other matter should be sent to:
