Fire Cover’, Has Been Published Continuously Since 1963 The Fire Brigade Society’s journal, ‘Fire Cover’, has been published continuously since 1963. The number of articles and depth of coverage of both historical and modern fire service events is very considerable and is, almost certainly, a unique collection. For each issue main articles and photographs are listed. As ‘Fire Cover’ was developed and enlarged, regular features, particularly giving news of local events, visits and area activities were included in the pages of the journal. For listing purposes, these are not included here unless they are of particular importance. Front cover photographs and later, all the photographs reproduced in colour in the journal are noted. With over 150 photos in each edition of later Fire Covers it is not possible to list every photograph in each issue. However, the number of photographs per article are noted. Special and Other Publications are available in a separate index. The listings will be updated on an annual basis after the end of The Society year. Please pass errors / corrections to the Editorial Team. The index was compiled by Mike Bunn and Clive Shearman. 1-100 TITLE SUBJECT AUTHOR AREA BRIGADE ISSUE NOTES (if different from title) or OTHER No. 01 No photographs.

Recommendations That the London Fire Commissioner approves: a. The content and findings of the Review (Appendix 1). b. The recommendations of the Review. Background 1. London Fire Brigade (LFB) is one of the largest metropolitan fire and rescue services in the world and operates within a highly complex and challenging environment. The threat that emerged from international and domestic terror following the attacks in 2001 on the World Trade Centre and the subsequent challenges posed by Marauding Terrorist Attacks (MTA) has meant LFB has needed to ensure it is able to respond to these threats and mitigate their impact. As a result, the OR/SOG Department has provided the capability and expertise to deliver that response. This also included the development of a new tactical advisor role in 2001 with the creation of Interagency Liaison Officers (ILO) now National Interagency Liaison Officers (NILO). The instigation, development and coordination of the NILO role has been a significant achievement for LFB and enjoys substantial support across the fire and rescue sector and with partner agencies.

(01642) 302725 E-mail [email protected] TILLEY AWARD 2000, SUBMISSION SUMMARY PROJECTTITLE- OPERATION BOX CLEVER The Crime and Disorder Audit for the Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council and Langbaurgh District Police identified the alarming fact that the district of Redcar and Cleveland had the highest levels of arson and hoax calls within the U.K. The two adjacent wards of South Bank and Grangetown were the worst affected, and could justifiably be recognised as "the arson capital of the U.K." The Fire Brigade provided evidence of the twenty-five worst performing enumeration districts across the Cleveland area, ten of these were in the South Bank and Grangetown area. Research by the Fire Brigade identified young hoax callers, if unchallenged, can encourage others to make calls. Some hoax callers will progress to fire play and ultimately fire setting. It was further identified that areas with significant social deprivation also had the highest levels of hoax calls and arson. The Fire Brigade had access to a `one to one education service for referred fire-setters, which had a proven success rate in breaking the offending cycle. Historically, the dispatching of Police resources has always been prioritised. Hoax calls made predominantly by children below the age of criminal responsibility were never afforded the necessary commitment or investigative process and very few were identified. The response to the problem would include arson and hoax calls as a priority within the Community Safety Strategy for the district.
