​​Fire Engineers Advisory Panel ​

​​The Fire Engineers Advisory Panel is an expert advisory panel established in April 2025 to provide advice to government on the fire engineering profession.

The panel will consider what should be expected of a competent fire engineer, and in addition, support and advise on the implementation of other Grenfell Inquiry recommendations in respect of fire engineers.  

​This page will be updated as the Panel’s work progresses.
