On Tuesday 2 August the Union blacked the above appliance. Given the long list of faults and failures of this appliance, the Union was forced to take this action.
We considered the risk to firefighters and to the public was too high.
Members need to keep reporting faults and failures to Chris Lind who is co-ordinating the spreadsheet of faults and failures.
Members will know that effective Noon, Friday the 29th May, Government has changed the Level 2 COVID-19 restrictions with an increase in gatherings to 100 persons.
With the transition to Level 2 and the elimination of station bubbles, the risk of exposure to members has been increased.
As staff will know the Prime Minister has announced a move from tomorrow to COVID-19 Alert Level 2, and as a result, we will begin a controlled transition to “Business as Usual”.
