The
Fire and Emergency Services Authority
advises:
(a) A range of administrative changes are being implemented to transition the Fire and Emergency Services Authority of WA from a statutory authority to a Department of State. These administrative changes are largely related to corporate systems and functions including finance, human resources, governance (reporting) and information technology.
(b) Administrative changes are being undertaken within existing resource allocations.
(c) FESA is taking a responsible and cost effective approach to rebranding activities by depleting its existing stock of material and adopting a 'fair wear and tear' methodology to replacing material and products in order to keep costs to a minimum.
