Part 2 - Functions of fire and rescue authorities - sets out the duties and powers of authorities (principally, fire safety, fires and road traffic accidents, and emergencies). Part 3 - Administration - provides for the preparation of a Fire and Rescue National Framework setting out the Services strategic priorities, and for Government supervision of authorities. Part 4 - Employment - deals in particular with negotiating bodies, and pension schemes. Part 5 - Water supply - imposes duties on fire and rescue authorities and water undertakers to ensure an adequate supply of water for fire-fighting activities. Part 6 - Supplementary - includes provisions abolishing the Central Fire Brigades Advisory Council.
