- Articles 4-7 of the Fire and Rescue Service (NI) Order 2006 and the Fire and Rescue Services (Emergencies) Order (NI) 2011 confirm NIFRS have a statutory responsibility to make provision for the removal of chemicals, biological or radioactive contaminants in the event of a chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear incident and ensure reasonable steps are taken to prevent harm to the environment. Chemdata licencing is required for NIFRS to have access to safety critical chemical information whilst dealing with emergency incidents involving chemicals. Details include essential safety measures and PPE required when working with and around chemicals. Chemical knowledge and safety information is essential in keeping our emergency responders and the public safe.
