To ask the Chief Executive how many ambulance and/or fire engine call outs are made to the IPAS centres in this LEA on a monthly basis with a breakdown of numbers for each IPAS centre, and for the costs incurred.

REPLY:

They prioritise the safety and wellbeing of communities by ensuring that no call goes unanswered, demonstrating their commitment to a comprehensive emergency response.
