The Fire Industry Association (FIA) has revealed the seminar programme for their annual conference which takes place on 15th March, in Warwickshire.

This year’s event, which takes place the day after Firex South in Sandown Park, is focusing on a number of key issues including the reduction of false alarms, and definitions of ‘suitable and sufficient’ in relation to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
