13 Fire engines
Question No: 2015/4005
Andrew Dismore
As the FBU have now indicated that they will not be taking further strike action until at the
Summer of 2017, do you agree that the money saved as a result can now be used to return at least 2 of the 13 fire engines presently off the run?
Written response from the Mayor
I note that the principal budget options available to LFEPA for 2016-17 are currently subject
to a public consultation exercise and I look forward to seeing the results of that exercise in
February 2016. I shall rely on the Fire Commissioner’s professional advice in determining
what action, if any, I should take at that time.
