Alternative 1

  • 10% of the regional cost weighted according to the number of control room operator positions per brigade as a proportion of the total number of control room operator positions for the group
  • 20% of the regional costs weighted according to the area of each brigades as a proportion of the total area of the group
  • 50% of the regional costs weighted according to the number of mobile and fixed terminals per brigade as a proportion of the total number in use in the group. This should also include any spares holding.
  • 20% of the regional costs according to the number of incidents per brigade as a proportion of the total number of incidents attended by the group (data averaged over 3 years)

For the avoidance of doubt, control room operator positions refers to the total number of control room operator positions in the control room not the number of radio operator consoles or positions.

Alternative 2

  • 30% of the regional cost shared equally between the participating brigades
  • 35% of the regional cost according to the number of mobile and fixed terminals per brigade weighted as a proportion of the total number in use in the group. This should also include any spares holding.
  • 35% of the regional cost weighted according to the number of incidents per brigade as a proportion of the total number of incidents attended by the group (data averaged over three years)

Alternative 3

  • Each participant brigade paying an equal share of a percentage of total group costs plus an additional factored amount that would vary from brigade to brigade based on the percentages and weightings in Alternative 1

The split between the amount to be apportioned equally between brigades and the variable amount would need to be established. A suggested split is that 40% be divided equally between participating brigades and the remaining 60% of the costs shared on the basis of Alternative 1.

Alternative 4

This is a simple apportionment of cost based on the number of fire stations within each brigade’s area as a proportion of the total number in the group.
