it added that, under the areas of “preventing fires and other risks”, and “protecting the public through fire regulation”, improvements should be made.
Writing in his report, HM inspector of fire and rescue services Roy Wilsher said: “I am pleased with the performance ofin keeping people safe and secure from fires and other risks, although it needs to improve in some areas to provide a consistently good service.
“The service has an effective integrated risk management model in place. But the approach to preventing risk and protecting the public is often to respond to a report or referral. The service should consider how it can take a more balanced and proactive approach to dealing with its risks.” Mr Wilsher added: “Overall, the service has developed a good understanding of its future financial challenges. It has also identified savings and investment opportunities to improve the service to the public or generate further savings.
