Under the 1981 Fire Services Act

(2) A fire authority shall

( a ) make provision for the prompt and efficient extinguishing of fires in buildings and other places of all kinds in its functional area and for the protection and rescue of persons and property from injury by fire, and

( b ) establish and maintain a fire brigade, provide premises and make such other provision as it considers necessary or desirable for such purpose, and

( c ) make adequate provision for the reception of and response to calls for the assistance of the fire brigade.

To this end each of the 37 fire authorities have either set up their own fire brigade or like Dublin combined authorities to run one brigade. To date their are 37 Authorities and 30 fire brigades in the 26 counties of the Republic of Ireland.

In Northern Ireland there is one Fire and Rescue Service.
