This is the list of documents available for the submission By Bailie Dr Nina Baker:- "Council notes that Scottish Fire and Rescue Service has responsibility for a wide range of life-saving rescues that do not involve fire. Council notes with grave concern, the proposals by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service to change the Crewing arrangements for the Polmadie Community Fire Station River Clyde Rescue Boat, which were put in place by the Chief Fire Officer of Strathclyde Fire and Rescue in 2010 and which have served the communities of Glasgow, Renfrewshire and West Dunbartonshire. In Glasgow with its many rivers, canals and other bodies of water, the principal causes of death in emergencies with SFRS has been called, are due to drowning. It also notes that wrongly-resourced services not only put the public at risk but also raises the level of risk to any emergency services' personnel attending at an emergency. Council believes that the Scottish Government's Draft Fire Framework document for 2016 requires an operational delivery model to be flexible and tailored to meet the differing risks within the local community, which is reflected within the local senior officers' plan as tailored to the local pattern of needs and that one size does not fit all parts of Scotland. In Glasgow, the fast running tidal Clyde and its various tributaries and other bodies of water constitute a significant risk which deserves to have specialist-trained personnel who are not diverted to other duties. Council therefore resolves to write to the Chief Fire Officer and Justice Secretary, expressing its strongest wish to retain the dedicated boat at Polmadie and that the crewing arrangement does not move to the proposed Dual Crewed system.".
