Future of Scottish emergency fire control room

Resolution 17 – FUTURE OF SCOTTISH EMERGENCY FIRE CONTROL ROOMS
This Conference notes the creation of the new Scottish Fire and Rescue Service,
which replaces the eight previous Fire and Rescue Services in Scotland.
Conference is concerned over the maintainance of the existing eight Emergency Fire
Control Rooms and also the maintainance of the current number of Firefighter Control
posts in the new service.
Conference is opposed to the loss of any Emergency Firefighter Control posts and
should the commitments given by the Scottish Government and the Fire and Rescue
Board to protect the front line service during the transition and also their commitment
to no compulsory redundancies not be upheld, through the transition period and
beyond that the FBU will campaign against any proposed reduction in Firefighter
Control Posts using all means necessary, up to and including strike action.
