From April 2009, the London Safety Plan is our combined Corporate Plan and Integrated Risk Management Action Plan - previously these have been separate documents. It brings together in one document the key work we are doing to achieve our vision of being a world class fire and rescue service for London, Londoners and visitors. Our current Plan (the Fourth London Safety Plan) covers the period 2010 to 2013. The Authority’s Performance Management Committee receives quarterly reports on the progress in delivering the commitments in the Plan.
As a public service our performance and the way that we use our resources are very important, therefore every year we set targets and monitor our performance against them and make any improvements we can to the services we provide in London.
The Performance Management Committee meets to monitor performance against indicators, progress in delivering commitments in the London Safety Plan and key corporate projects. The Community Safety Committee oversees our policies for community safety, promoting prevent activity, and local partnerships to promote community safety.
We work in partnership with the other emergency services, the London boroughs and other London agencies to develop and maintain plans that will ensure a coordinated response in the event of a major or catastrophic incident occurring. It’s vital that our plans for a coordinated response are ready in the event of emergencies, including terrorist attacks, incidents with hazardous material, floods and the other effects of extreme weather, because the actions of one organisation at a major incident could impact on all of the other agencies involved. Our Emergency Planning team supports this partnership working across the capital.
Our Emergency Planning team supports London’s six local resilience forums and the London Local Authority Gold (LLAG) arrangements by providing the London Local Authority Co-ordination Centre (LLACC) and acting as a single point of contact for other agencies on behalf of local authorities.
London Fire Brigade produces a range of corporate documents reflecting our performance, including statistical information on how we are performing in your area through the publications ‘How we making your Borough safer’.
Every year we set targets for a range of performance indicators and monitor our performance against them and make any improvements we can to the services we provide in London. Some of these targets are about reducing fires and other emergency incidents, others are about how we deliver our emergency response and the community safety prevention work we do. Other targets relate to how well we run our organisation. This is also available in hard copy. Please contact us.
The Performance Management Committee meets to set targets for the Authority and monitor performance against those targets.
