Update for all Fire Control Members - Serious failures of 'Vision 4 DS' mobilising system

For a considerable period of time the FBU has been raising the very serious concerns we have in regard to the “Vision 4 DS mobilising system”, supplied by Capita. This system is meant to underpin the “Networked Fire Control Services Partnership (NFCSP)” which is a single command and control system for the Fire and Rescue Services in Devon & Somerset, Dorset & Wiltshire and Hampshire.

Pensions: 18-20 case

As you will be aware, the FBU has successfully challenged the government over age discrimination relating to members who joined the 1992 Firefighters’ Pension Scheme before age 20.  This is more commonly known as the ‘18-20 claim’.
