Conor Lenihan

Ceist:

307 Mr. C. Lenihan asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the plans, if any, he has to review the operation of the fire services in view of recent industrial unrest. [15218/99]

The Fire Services Act, 1981, provides the statutory basis for the organisation of fire services, the establishment of fire authorities and fire brigades and the functions of fire authorities. Under the Act, the provision and operation of a fire service in its area is a matter for each fire authority. The provisions of the Act are subject to ongoing review.
