<p>Fire and Rescue Authorities are required by the Fire and Rescue National Framework
to have in place and maintain an Integrated Risk Management Plan, which is developed
in consultation with local communities. A fire and rescue authority will evaluate
where fire and rescue related risk is greatest and determine its priorities in relation
to prevention, protection and response accordingly.</p><p>In addition, each fire and
rescue authority has a statutory requirement to have mutual assistance arrangements
in place to provide additional support including during major fires and other emergencies,
and to review and test their arrangements.</p><p>Local mutual assistance arrangements
are augmented by national resilience capabilities available from across the country.</p>
