Decision Maker: Flintshire County Council

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Allweddol decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

To invite the Council to make a response to the consultation document of the North Wales Fire and Rescue Service Your Services, Your Choices.

Decision:

The Council shares the concerns of the North Wales Fire and Rescue Authority to protect both the preventative and responsive services as far as possible.  The Council requests the Fire Authority to review further the scope for efficiency savings and reductions in non-statutory services expenditure, to be open to financial scrutiny and challenge towards maximising ‘Value for Money’ and reduction of overhead costs whilst providing the same or better level of protection to the residents of Flintshire, to offset any increase in the levy to be met by the constituent North Wales Councils.
