Our Issues• NZFS not funded for non- mandated

activities e.g. MVA, Hazsubs etc.

• Increasing number of road incidents and medical assistance calls has a detrimental effect on our Volunteer Fire Brigades.

• Often a lack of structured and/or formalised Command & Control at incidents.

• Lack of involvement in the planning stages of roadway construction projects.
