On September 4 Perth Fire Station went from three water pumps to two and saw a reduction in crew numbers
A campaign has been mounted against the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service cuts which has seen the loss of a water pump and jobs in Perth.
FBU branch secretary for Perth Fire Station David Evans has warned “firefighters have genuine concerns for the safety of themselves and the public”. David Evans said: “On September 4, the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service removed 10 pumps from Scotland and reduced resources in other areas due to a real terms budget reduction that requires savings of over £30 million to be made. In Perth, this means that a pumping appliance has been lost and a dedicated aerial appliance will be introduced. Ten to 15 firefighter positions will be lost from Perth Fire Station.
