To consider a report from the Chief Fire Officer, which explains how the Service has performed over the last six months and highlights current progress in delivering Year 2 improvements of our 2020-25 Safety Plan.

The Committee received a report from the Chief Fire Officer (item 10 in the minute book), which explained how the Service had performed over the last six months against the core purpose of making life safer.

Members queried the number of co-responder and calls to road traffic collisions and whether calls could be better categorised, and it was confirmed that this would be further investigated for discussion at a future APAG along with local stress points.

The Authority was pleased to learn that the Service was focussed on putting measures in place to ensure critical cover throughout the winter with many lines of resilience in place.

It was agreed that the information would be beneficial to Councillors across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight and would be circulated.
