Fire Service Review - Full Background Documents Finally Released

October 16, 2009 8:00 PM

Nigel Rock, Liberal Democrat parliamentary candidate for Kenilworth & Southam, has been campaigning for weeks to get full disclosure of the all the reports considered by the County Council Cabinet in July, when it decided to propose the closure of seven Warwickshire Fire Stations.

Final success was achieved today, with the posting on the Warwickshire web site of the Cabinet report and two background reports - the DNV consultants' Risk Review report, and an IDeA peer review report.

Nigel said:

"Now these reports have been made public, it is very difficult to see the justification for them having been kept secret for so long. The Risk Review report in particular contains a lot of important information which Warwickshire residents are entitled to see in making a considered and informed response to the current consultation process.

"The Liberal Democrats will now study these reports in detail, so that we can respond properly to the many questions and concerns already raised with us by worried Warwickshire residents."
