This book focuses on the key reforms proposed by Theresa May when she was Home Secretary in response to these reports and critically examines the new National Framework and the new external Inspectorate that were created as a result. Rebuilding the Fire and Rescue Services will prove invaluable for both academics and practitioners in order to build a more efficient and effective performance regime for this essential emergency service. It demonstrates the context, the parameters, the agencies and the inter-relationships that operate within the areas of policy development, service delivery and public assurance in the service. It shows how the new national framework and the new inspectorate can be improved. Most of all it shows the need for robust data and intelligence at both the national and local levels.Emerald points.Emergency managementLaw and legislationEnglandFirst respondersEnglandFire departmentsEnglandPolitical SciencePublic PolicyGeneralbisacshFire servicesbicsscEmergency managementLaw and legislationFirst respondersFire departmentsPolitical SciencePublic PolicyGeneral.Fire services.363.370942Murphy Peter856367Lakoma KatarzynaEckersley PeterGlennon RussUtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910826577703321Rebuilding the fire and rescue services3982177UNINA
