ESTONIAN RESCUE BOARD – YEARBOOK 2019 9 ORGANISATION 10 years have passed since smoke detectors became mandatory The year 2019 marked the ten-year anniversary of making smoke detectors mandatory in dwellings. According to the most recent survey of the fire-safe- ty awareness index, 92% of Estonian homes had a smoke detector in 2019, which is 4% more than in 2017. Generally, the situation of and attitudes towards fire safety have improved every year in Estonia, which is also backed up by statistics. The Estonian Rescue Board started systematic prevention activi- ties with different age groups (children, adults, the elderly) in 2006. The results of the prevention activ- ities manifested quickly – while in 2006, 164 people, i.e. 12.2 per 100,000 inhabitants died in a fire, this figure in 2009 was 63 people, i.e. 3.7 per 100,000 inhabitants. The numbers dropped 2.5 times; how- ever, there were still too many people who died in their homes, which is why smoke detectors were made mandatory. The Nordic countries were used as role models here. Rescue As of 2018, homes which use gas devices must also workers have a carbon monoxide detector.

The Estonian Rescue Board is Estonia’s third largest, and the most respect- ed governmental institution. According to a survey conducted by Turu-uu- ringute AS, we have the support of 95% of the Estonian population and, therefore, an increased burden of responsibility. We can say that we have warranted this trust, as our consistent efforts have decreased the number of fires and the fatalities caused by them. In 2016, for the first time, the number of fatalities caused by fires was under 40. Ten years of preventative work has seen the rate of fire fatalities decrease almost fourfold and deaths by drowning decrease nearly twofold. We know that the road ahead is a difficult one, as prevention alone is not enough to solve the reasons for why people perish in fire or water. Moving forward towards our strategic goals, we depend on our ability to cooperate with different partners. Ad- ministrative reforms will create larger and more capable local governments, which we regard as our most important partners in ensuring the safety of our citizens. We are looking to cooperate with new local governments to clarify areas of responsibility in supervising planning and construction, creating safety plans for welfare services, and improving local governments' preparedness for emergencies and coverage of vital services.

The author further presents the various levels of the system – regional, county and local. The report draws particular attention to the Estonian Rescue Board that is directly subordinated to the Ministry of Interior and has a key role in representing Estonia in various international forums such as the UN, EU and NATO and other relevant civil security organisations, and to the Emergency Response Centre.

  • Tallinn City Centre Photo: Andrei Pustovalov Photo: Andrei the City Centre in a Nutshell
    estonia Tallinn City Centre Photo: Andrei Pustovalov Photo: Andrei The city centre in a nutshell If it is ever possible to attach signifi cance to a city district as being the most important in the country, the city centre of Tallinn is it due to its high concentration of government and cultural institutions. The city centre is home to both parliamentary and government buildings (on Toompea Hill), ministries, Tallinn City Council and Tallinn City Government, the Estonia National Opera, a variety of theatres and concert halls, the National Library, the National Stadium and numerous museums and churches. As such, the residents of the district are always at the heart of political and cultural life in Estonia. The City Centre district was formed on 4 March 1993 by a decision of Tallinn City Council that divided the capital into eight local government units with limited powers. Prior to this reform, what is now considered the city centre had been divided between four districts (Kalinin, Lenin, Meri and Oktoober), each of which bordered one side of Town Hall Square. Due to its location, the city centre can be considered a link between the other districts of Tallinn, as it borders Põhja-Tallinn, Kristiine, Nõmme, Lasnamäe and Pirita alike. Rae municipality and the Baltic Sea are also direct neighbours. The administrative area of the city centre also includes Lake Ülemiste and Aegna Island in the Gulf of Finland. As at 1 September 2020, the population of the City Centre district was 63,692. That makes it the third largest district in Tallinn after Lasnamäe and Mustamäe, but there is only one other town or city in Estonia with a larger population: Tartu.
