Keeping Communities Safe Final Version

The "Keeping Communities Safe" (KCS) document is the blueprint for the future direction of the fire service which will deliver consistent, effective and value for money fire services in Ireland while continuing to reduce the risk from fires in our communities and prioritising the safety of fire personnel in their work. KCS has been developed using a risk management approach, where risks are identified, classified and used to prioritise fire service activity in prevention, protection and response.

Over the years Las as an avid fire service historian he has published various articles in magazines such as FireCall and other fire related magazines and online. For those who had the chance to visit the great Dublin Fire Brigade museum in the O Brien Training institute you may have had the good fortune of meeting him in the museum and hearing him talk about the many exhibits there of which quite a few were on loan from his extensive private collection. Las was the curator there from 2008 to 2011.
Las is also a member of a number of organisations including the Fire Heritage Network, The Fire Service Trust and the Fire Mark Circle.

Draft New National PDAs Oct 2012Thursday, 01 November 2012 20:56 | Last Updated on Tuesday, 30 November 1999 00:00 | | |
An important document for all those involved in the Fire Service and affected by them!
(Draft Version)
This document sets out a series of standard Categories of Incident Types and the associated Pre-Determined Attendances (PDAs) for these Incident Categories.
Fire Services are mobilised to incidents by Regional Communications Centres (RCCs). These RCCs have lists of various incident types, however, there isn’t uniformity in the various types of incidents across the RCCs. Section 2 of this document sets out guidance on the various categories that incidents will be classified into, and the PDA associated with that incident type.
