Scenario: 27 properties anything from 2 to 20 staff in each 9-5MF mostly. Generally office type activities. Charity enterprise , not unlikely that associated groups will use our premises out of hours. What is current thinking on Fire Marshal Training Opinions seems to run from Fire Marshals should ABSOLUTELY NOT attempt to fight fires and concentrate on evacuation of premises and liaison with fire service right through to fully trained fire fighting duties with refresher courses every six months. OK extreme examples but you can see the dilemma .. just how would we for instance do we obtain the right level for groups that use our premises occasionally and what could we seriously expect them to do. Fully aware this is a difficult and contentious issue from some of the discussions I've had but any comments help or advice welcome ... Thanks Bob
