Priti Patel – 2022 Comments on Fire Reform

The comments made by Priti Patel, the Home Secretary, on 18 May 2022.

The government’s priority is keeping the public safe and the reforms we’ve set out today will strengthen and support our hard-working fire and rescue services.

The White Paper will be transformative in how firefighters are trained and will enable fire and rescue services to build on their strengths and leadership.

The Grenfell tragedy must never happen again and we are continuing to drive forward progress on putting the Grenfell Tower Inquiry recommendations into law.
