Fire Services: Medals
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government what assessment her Department has made of the merits of providing funding for the award of fire service veterans badges; and if she will make a statement.
- Answer
-
The Department has no plans to provide or fund a veterans badge for fire fighters. Some members of the National Fire services may be eligible for the Defence Medal. I understand that the British Fire Services Association designed and issued a lapel badge for veterans in the fire service, these are not funded by this Department.
