What efforts have you made, personally, or the Mayor, to engage with the Fire Brigades Union (FBU) to avert a very damaging industrial action over proposed changes to the shift patterns?
What are the Chairman's priorities to build upon the 'excellent' Authority status achieved due to the leadership and vision of the previous administration?
Will you please explain what service improvements, efficiencies and other ancillary benefits we may expect if the 12:12 shift-pattern for firefighters is implemented?
Has the Chairman of the Authority made any changes to his approach, following publication of the Audit Commission's Corporate Assessment of LFEPA which flagged up that staff and some external stakeholders find his style too confrontational?
