FIRE DEATHS IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 1971

Chandler, S.E., 1971. FIRE DEATHS IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 1971. Fire Research Notes 873


ABSTRACT

A preliminary survey shows that there were 147 fatal casualties in fires attended by fire brigades in England and Wales during the first quarter of 1971. The corresponding figures for Scotland and Northern Ireland were 31 and 2 respectively. It is likely that because of an industrial dispute involving the fire services these figures are underestimates of the true figures.
