Conference<br />
INTRODUCTION<br />
Welcome to this, the twenty second annual Fire Safety Conference, organised by the<br />
Northern Ireland Fire Safety Liaison Panel.<br />
The aim of the Conference is to raise awareness in the protection of citizens who<br />
occupy the built environment, by the sharing of knowledge and expertise through this<br />
multi-agency forum<br />
The Fire Safety Liaison Panel encompasses the disciplines of:<br />
Local Council Building Control<br />
The Northern Ireland Fire & Rescue Service<br />
The Entertainment Licensing Officers Forum, and<br />
The NIHE-HMO Unit.<br />
This year our Conference will focus on “Advancing The Fire Safety Message.”<br />
Our speakers have been drawn from various disciplines in the field of fire safety and<br />
include fire safety professionals, fire brigade, product manufacturers and suppliers,<br />
trade bodies, research establishments and fire investigators. The conference will<br />
examine current issues across a range of building types and occupancy profiles.<br />
These will include domestic premises through to large commercial and multi-storey<br />
premises, including those to which the public are admitted to socialise. Topics will<br />
explore facades on high rise buildings, fighting fires in such buildings, responsibilities<br />
of owners / occupiers, evacuation behaviour, forensics- DNA and how<br />
communication is essential in advancing fire safety. The presentations will include a<br />
number of case studies, ensuring the event will be interactive, and will involve<br />
audience participation and opportunities for questions; it equates to 10 hours CPD.<br />
We trust you will find the Conference beneficial, educational and entertaining. Each<br />
year we strive to raise the standards of fire safety and awareness of the need to<br />
consider fire safety in everyday scenarios you may face.<br />
