  • City Hall Rich List 2020
    City Hall Rich List 2020 Darwin Friend June 2020 Introduction Scrutinising staffing costs at local and national level is a hallmark of our mission to make government more accountable to taxpayers. This principle underpins our annual Town Hall Rich List, which details remuneration of the highest paid people across local government.1 It should also apply to municipal government. The Greater London Authority (GLA) is one of the biggest local authorities in the UK; it includes a number of well-known bodies and a powerful mayor. Sadiq Khan, the current mayor of London, has complained about financial woes, while the staffing costs of City Hall employees have risen by 82 per cent, from £36 million in 2016-17 to £65.5 million in the 2020-21 proposed budget.2 Meanwhile, the mayor has increased the band D council tax precept by just under nine per cent in 2019-20, and London taxpayers have gone from paying £295 in 2015-16 to £332 in 2020-21 for the GLA.3,4 The City Hall Rich List details the employees working for the Greater London Authority, Transport for London, London Fire Brigade and Metropolitan Police whose total remuneration exceeds £100,000. Key findings ▪ There were at least 654 people employed by the GLA and its subsidiary bodies in 2018-19 who received more than £100,000. Of these, 154 received over £150,000 in total remuneration. In 2015-16, 653 received more than £100,000 and 147 employees collected over £150,000. ▪ In 2018-19 the body with the highest number of employees with remuneration in excess of £100,000 was Transport for London, with 518 employees.

  • London Fire Brigade (LFB)
    Written evidence submitted by London Fire Brigade (RSM0100) London Fire Brigade (LFB) is London's fire and rescue service - one of the largest firefighting and rescue organisations in the world and we are here to make London a safer city. Decisions are made either by the London Fire Commissioner (the statutory fire and rescue authority for Greater London), the Mayor of London or the Deputy Mayor for Fire and Resilience. A Fire, Resilience and Emergency Planning Committee of the London Assembly holds the Commissioner, Mayor and Deputy Mayor to account. Response SMART motorways can pose unique challenges to emergency services when responding to incidents. Traffic can become very heavy in a short period of time. This proves particularly difficult when there is no dedicated hard shoulder which is the case for All Lanes Running. Depending on the time of day and traffic volume it is very likely that traffic will become congested quickly behind the incident causing delays for responding emergency services. When an Incident is identified signage is put in place to create a temporary hard shoulder for responding appliances. However, it is recognised that the vehicles in the temporary hard shoulder close to the incident are unlikely to be able to move out of the way causing delay to our response. When an incident occurs causing all lanes to be closed this will cause heavy traffic back log. Reverse access is an option for attending crews to utilise. This is where appliances will go ahead of the incident and enter the motorway driving along the affected carriageway in the opposite direction to the normal traffic flow.

They need a wise, progressive and compassionate leader to direct their work and ensure they have what they need to deliver for Londoners. The outgoing Commissioner, Dany Cotton, has provided exactly that, and has been an inspiration both to her team and to me personally. Her 32-year career shows the best of what our fire service can be – allowing a talented female leader to rise up through the operational ranks to head the busiest fire service in the country. Many challenges remain for the London Fire Brigade. That is why we continue to work to improve the culture of the organisation to make it more welcoming to people from all walks of life, so the Brigade can reflect the community it serves. The Brigade has been deeply affected by the tragic events at Grenfell Tower in June 2017. While ensuring our firefighters and other affected staff have the support they need to deal with the personal effects of the fire, we are also working to learn lessons from that night and the underlying issues.

  • Governance Review FINAL(1)
    Review of Governance and Functions of the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) (Annex A) This review is a subsequent review to the WMCA governance review and scheme. The review deals with: • The transfer of functions and governance arrangements in relation to the exercise of fire and rescue functions in the West Midlands, • An overview of the governance arrangements. 1. EXISTING ARRANGEMENTS: Existing Fire and Rescue Arrangements: 1.1 West Midlands Fire and Rescue Service (the Service) provides prevention, protection and response services to the seven metropolitan councils in the West Midlands. These core services are prescribed under legislation, assurance for which is provided through the West Midlands Fire and Rescue Authority (the Authority). The Authority is accountable to the public for the services provided to local communities. The most pertinent service delivery legislative provisions are as follows: • The Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004 • The Fire and Rescue National Framework for England • The Fire and Rescue Services (Emergencies) (England) Order 2007 • The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety Order) 2005 • The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 Further detail of these legislative provisions is provided in Appendix 1. Page 1 of 53 The Fire and Rescue Service (FRS) is a unique public body that plans for risk not outcomes, and is informed by demand. Appendix 2 details the understanding behind risk, this planning approach and how the Service addresses that risk through its prevention, protection and response services. This review will demonstrate the reliance and value that these services add beyond local level delivery, with consideration given to regional, national and specialist international capabilities and interventions.
