2 INTRODUCTION

This performance report provides information on our prevention, protection and operational response activities within Na H-Eileanan an Iar over the period Quarter 4 2015-2016, (1 January – 31 March).

The Scottish Government provides an overarching vision for public services. This vision is supported by 16 National Outcomes which demonstrate commitment to creating a more successful country, with opportunities for all of Scotland to flourish, through increasing sustainable growth. The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) can make a significant contribution to improving these outcomes in Na H-Eileanan an Iar by contributing to the Community Planning arrangements.

The national priorities for the SFRS are set out in the Fire and Rescue Framework for Scotland 2013. The SFRS Strategic Plan 2013-2016 outlines how the SFRS will deliver against these priorities and the outcomes against which this delivery can be measured.

The priorities contained within the Local Fire and Rescue Plan for Na H-Eileanan an Iar 2014-2017 reflects the Outer Hebrides Community Planning Partnership Plan including the Single Outcome Agreement (SOA) 2014 – 17.

The SOA includes a range of key themes focused on delivering improved outcomes for the communities of Na HEileanan an Iar.

The aims of the local Fire and Rescue Service in Na H-Eileanan an Iar are to reduce deaths, injuries and damage to property from fires and other emergency events. We aim to achieve this by working in partnership, being pro-active and targeting our prevention and protection activities to where they are most required, based on evidence.

Within the Local Fire and Rescue Plan for Na H-Eileanan an Iar 2014 - 2017, 9 priorities for the local Fire and Rescue Service have been identified;

Priority 1. Local Risk Management and Preparedness Priority 2. Reduction of Accidental Dwelling Fires Priority 3. Reduction in Fire Casualties and Fatalities Priority 4. Reduction of Deliberate Fire Setting Priority 5. Reduction of Fires in Non-Domestic Property Priority 6. Reduction in Casualties from Non Fire Emergencies Priority 7. Reduction of Unwanted Fire Alarm Signals Priority 8. Enhance our contribution to community planning Priority 9. Enhance our local engagement practice

Fire Appliance Availability

The following bar graphs indicate the operational availability of fire appliances across Na H-Eileanan an Iar during January, February and March. The lower half of each bar indicates the average day-time availability of a fire appliance from 6am to 6pm across the month. The upper half of each bar indicates the average night-time availability of a fire appliance from 6 pm to 6am across the month. Blue portions of a bar indicate the percentage of time when a fire appliance was operationally available, red portions when operationally unavailable.

The primary factor affecting appliance availability remains staffing. Low staffing numbers means that it takes only 1 or 2 members to be unavailable through primary employment, leave or sickness to fundamentally affect the availability of the stations’ appliance. As can be seen in the charts below, Castlebay, Bayhead and South Lochs are particularly affected. It is to the credit of other stations with low numbers such as Port of Ness, Valtos and Shawbost that their availability remains high despite other demands on personnel.

To ensure that safe systems of work are in place, SFRS policy stipulates that a minimum of 4 suitably qualified personnel must crew an appliance before it can be considered available, this number includes the Officer in Charge who will have completed a minimum of Incident Command Level 1 training.

In addition the Gartan FSi electronic availability system is designed around specific criteria, specifying that a qualified Officer in Charge is available, a trained Emergency driver is available, qualified BA wearers are available in minimum numbers, all of which ‘overlays’ the minimum number of personnel to crew the vehicle (4). In simple terms the ‘system’ interrogates the available personnel automatically and designates the appliance on or off ‘the run’. So, for example, a given station may have 8 personnel available but no OIC with the latest minimum Incident command qualification, and the electronic system would declare this applicant unavailable. Should this appliance be required in the event of an emergency, Operations Control would analyse the situation and alert crews despite the electronic systems status. No incidents have failed to elicit an attendance where a minimum of 4 personnel are available.

The recent opening (November 2015) of the new fire behaviour training facility in Stornoway will, it is hoped, increase the appeal of serving the community in the Fire & Rescue Service by streamlining the journey to joining the service and reducing the travel impact on personnel annually.

6 Fire Station Staffing & Recruitment

In 2015 SFRS launched a new model for recruitment which was anticipated would streamline the entire recruitment process and therefore significant benefits to station availability and staffing. The new process has been designed to deliver successful candidates from initial application to station in 16 weeks, and involves localised targeting of areas of the country where need is considered greatest. Western Isles’ latest campaigns were in late 2015, with applicants attending a December course, and the latest ‘Campaign’ was launched on 1st February 2016. Candidates for the latest campaign are expected to complete basic training by June .

Local Officers have engaged with local media outlets as well as using social media such as Twitter and Facebook to try to ensure the maximum reach of this recruitment campaign. Leafleting and banners have also been placed in key areas to highlight the recruitment drive and the need for individuals to support their community fire stations.

7 Operational Risk Intelligence Gathering and Review

Operational Risk Intelligence is a key factor in safeguarding both Firefighter and Community safety. The Control of Major Accident Hazards is a series of regulations which control the activities on high-risk use or storage of certain chemicals or compounds. All of the SFRS Site Specific Plans for COMAH sites for the Western Isles will be the subject of a comprehensive review over the next three months and additionally sites that are considered high risk but fall out with the COMAH guidelines will also be reviewed as part of routine updating of operational knowledge and intelligence. Examples of sites which are considered to require site specific plans include the gas plant at Stornoway and oil depot at Lochcarnan.

The dedicated team of Operational Intelligence staff is in the planning phase of a concentrated analysis of Stornoway and surrounding area risks, intending to visit in the near future

8 Progress on local fire & rescue plan priorities Na h-Eileanan Siar - Priority - All accidental dwelling fires Priority 2 - Reduction of 'All accidental dwelling fires'

The tables below represent the number of accidental dwelling house fires that occurred in the Western Isles.

Trend lines also identify the number of incidents over the reporting 5 year period, both by month and by reporting quarter.

The Service works closely with partner agencies and communities to reduce the number of accidental dwelling house fires through the delivery of targeted home fire safety visits and the installation of free smoke detectors. Supporting the targeted delivery, partner agencies routinely share data identifying residents that would benefit from this free service, aiming to reduce the risk of fire and harm to householders and their property.

While the graph below clearly shows that there is a low incidence of accidental dwelling fires and that the main ‘per 10,000 of population’ figure is reducing, it remains a key area for FRS attention, due to the potential impact on the safety of householders and their property and well-being. We will continue to identify ways to reduce the likelihood of house fires through themed national campaigns and local information sharing.

The tables below identify the number of dwelling house fires that have resulted in fire related fatalities over the reporting 5 year period. The Service is committed to reducing this figure to eliminate all events and occurrences that result in a fatality. As identified, partnership working and data sharing supports this key aim and the delivery of targeted life safety advice and information.

Home Fire Safety Education for Schools/Children continues to be a relevant and important element of SFRS activity, not only to promote personal safety for young individuals but also to promote responsibility and accountability in the wider context of anti-social behaviour.

SFRS continue to promote and train personnel in the use of the Community Safety Engagement Toolkit, (CSET), which in addition to being a recording mechanism for these activities, tracks activity across the SFRS. Over time, this will allow for the sharing of community safety engagement good-practice right across Scotland.

We will continue to deliver free home fire safety visits (HFSV) to advise and inform residents in the dangers of fire in the home. We will also continue to work with partner agencies through a range of initiatives, which includes installation of free smoke detectors.

Fire Fatalities and Casualties statistics:

The figures for this priority remain low, there appears to be an upward trend and this will be closely monitored to ensure that prevention measures are implemented should the trend progress upwards.

11 Progress on local fire & rescue plan priorities Na h-Eileanan Siar - Priority - All deliberate fires Priority 4 - Reduction of 'All deliberate fires'

Deliberate fires include those as a result of fire related antisocial behaviour (ASB) and wildfires. Analysis of the overall incidents and the periods in when they occur, identify seasonal variations e.g. muirburning season and holiday periods.

Deliberate fire setting is not a significant issue in the Outer Hebrides. The vast majority of deliberate fires attended by SFRS in the Western Isles are controlled burnings which became out of control. The number of maliciously ignited fires is very low and there has been only two within the reporting period. The Service has introduced a number of fire reduction strategies and thematic action plans, as indicated in the SFRS Seasonal Community Safer Calendar 2016, targeting these types of incidents.

Non – Domestic fires remain at low levels within the Western Isles. Q1 / Q2 peaks (and Q3 troughs) in three of the last four years are difficult to rationalise however this particular element of our activity will be monitored closely to identify and resolve any emerging risks.

Legislative Fire Safety Enforcement Audits

This function is now managed by a Fire Safety Enforcement Team based in Inverness who will schedule ‘enbloc’ visits to premises here. Two members of the team visit the Western Isles on a scheduled basis throughout the year and carry out a series of audits of premises. The use of a dedicated team has led to a consistency of approach across all areas of Scotland, improving not only the quality of the enforcement process but also a greater degree of assurance through shared best practice and trend analysis on a broader scale.

Post Fire Audits

It is now SFRS policy that a post fire audit will be implemented following a fire in any building which is deemed to be a “relevant premises” under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005. This examines whether the “duty holders” of the premises were adequately complying with their fire safety responsibilities.

14 Progress on local fire & rescue plan priorities Na h-Eileanan Siar - Priority - Special Service Casualties - All Priority 6 - Reduction of 'Special Service Casualties - All'

Special Service incidents involves an operational response to a range of emergency activities including life critical road traffic collisions, flooding events, industrial accidents and in support of other emergency service colleagues at larger multi-agency non-fire related events. The most common type of special service is as a result of a road traffic collision involving, in most cases, a response from all three emergency services. Include in the Special Service category is the SFRS response to weather related events such as damaged roofs and unstable structures.

Road safety activities in the area include e.g. Driving Ambition, which have a focused message of road safety, targeting key groups in the reduction of road related incidents as identified in Scotland’s Road Safety Framework to 2020.

Road Traffic Collisions

Road Traffic Collisions remain a significant element of operational activity. The Fire & Rescue Service are committed to supporting initiatives designed to highlight critical aspects of road safety. Road Safety is a key area for partnership working in Na-Eileanan Siar, and SFRS remains committed to playing its part in reducing both the occurrence and tragedy that can result from these.

15 Progress on local fire & rescue plan priorities Na h-Eileanan Siar - Priority - False Alarm - UFAs Priority 7 - Reduction of 'False Alarm - UFAs'

Unwanted Fire Alarm Signals remains a high percentage of overall calls. Continued efforts to reduce this aspect of fire service operations are a priority, while ensuring that premises are supported in the use of their systems to maintain the safety of staff and visitors.

The implementation of the 2015 UFAS policy across the Western Isles has proved largely effective though there is no room for complacency as is demonstrated by a recent increase in UFAS incidents following a period of determined decline. We will continue to seek further improvement and therefore reduce the financial and personal impact of UFAS on fire crews and our community. A recent realignment of the role of Station Manager, Prevention & Protection (Western Isles, Orkney & Shetland – WIOS) has led to a more proactive methodology being developed to address persistent call premises. While there are specific ‘triggers’ within the UFAS policy which lead to a formal approach being taken, the Station Manager P&P has outlined a plan whereby any premises which may have only sporadic incidents will be visited and offered guidance and advice. False alarms currently account for around 60% of all calls across Western isles, Orkney and Shetland and it is hope that this more targeted approach will reduce this statistic in due course.

16 4. Glossary

Primary Fire Primary fires include all fires in non-derelict buildings and outdoor structures or any fires involving casualties or rescues or any fires attended by five or more appliances.

Secondary Fires Secondary fires are the majority of outdoor fires including grassland and refuse fires unless they involve casualties or rescues, property loss or if five or more appliances attend. They include fires in derelict buildings but not chimney fires.

Accidental Dwelling Fires Building occupied by households, excluding hotels, hostels and residential institutions. In 2000, the definition of a dwelling was widened to include any non-permanent structure used solely as a dwelling, such as caravans, houseboats etc. Caravans, boats etc. not used as a permanent dwelling are shown according to the type of property. Accidental includes fires where the cause was not known or unspecified.

Fire Fatality A person whose death is attributed to a fire is counted as a fatality even if the death occurred weeks or months later.

Fire Casualty Non-fatal casualties, injured as a direct result of a fire attended by the service. Includes those who received first aid at the scene and those who were recommended to go for a precautionary check. Does not include injuries to fire service personnel.

Deliberate Fire Fires where deliberate ignition is suspected.

Special Services Special Services are non-fire incidents requiring the attendance of an appliance or officer. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 placed a statutory duty on FRS to attend fires and road traffic accidents. It also included an additional function order that covers non-fire incidents such as rescues from collapsed buildings or serious flooding.
