The fire safety remit of the National Safety Council will revert to my Department on an interim basis and arrangements for this transfer are currently being discussed with the Department of Transport. A final decision on the appropriate arrangements for the future promotion of fire safety will be made in the light of work currently under way on community fire safety under my fire services change programme.
