# The Fire and Rescue National Framework (Wales) 2005 (Revisions) Order 2007, Paragraph 2


Delete paragraph 2.2 and replace with —
“The Minister for Social Justice and Regeneration stated in 2003 that it was the Assembly Government’s target to reduce deaths in fires by between 30% and 50% in the following five years, and to work with other agencies towards reducing deaths and injuries in road traffic accidents by a similar figure. The baseline figures that will be used to assess the progress of Fire and Rescue Authorities against these ambitious targets will be the figures for the calendar year 2004. During 2004 there were a total of 26 fire deaths; 21 were as a result of accidental fires and 5 as a result of deliberate fires. The Assembly Government will keep the progress under review and will consider activity and achievement against this target periodically during the five year span.”
