We have seen too many fires in hotels and working with the MEPs to ensure that the regulations throughout Europe are in place to protect our citizens is vital. It was recognised that we need cross-border cooperation in all matters associated with civil protection, disaster management and fire safety. The European Parliament is discussing the Working Time directive and the input from the FEU could be invaluable.
