Commissioner’s statement on the third anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire

Meet Jonathan Smith, the Commissioner of London Fire Brigade

In response to government announcements today about reform in the fire and rescue sector, London Fire Brigade says it will start using new enforcement powers and will continue to support further change to protect the communities it serves.
