Who manages Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service
Chief Fire Officer: Chris Lowther
Fire and Rescue Authority Chair: Cllr Andy Crump
The county council is responsible for fire and rescue services in their area. Fire funding is not protected and it is up to the council to decide how much funding should be given to fire and rescue across the range of issues they are responsible for.
Integrated Risk Management Plans (IRMP)
It is a requirement under the Fire and Rescue National Framework that each Fire and Rescue Authority must produce an Integrated Risk Management Plan (IRMP). The IRMP should be easily accessible and publicly available. Each plan must reflect all foreseeable fire and rescue related risks that could affect their communities, whether they are local, cross-border, multi-authority and/or national in nature; set out its management strategy; reflect effective consultation throughout its development with the community, its workforce & partners, and cover at least a three-year timespan. Most Fire and Rescue Authority will review and update their IRMP on an annual basis.
