Member Development Strategy
Appendix A
1
1. Introduction
The aim of Member Development is to build on the skills and knowledge of Members to ensure they are able to fulfil their roles and responsibilities as a Fire
Authority Member.
The Code of Corporate Governance requires that arrangements are put in place to ensure that Members have the skills, knowledge and experience to perform well through the implementation of a Member Development Strategy.
This document brings together the aims of Member Development and the priorities of the Authority. It also details how Members will be supported to fulfil
their roles and contribute to the quality of the services delivered to communities.
2. Authority Priorities The Member Development Strategy strives to contribute to the delivery of the Authority’s vision of ‘Safest People, Safest Places’.
This will be achieved by linking Member Development with the following three
aims and seven objectives which underpin the Authority’s vision: Protecting and Preventing
i) Identify and reduce risks from fire and other hazards to achieve safer,
stronger communities. ii) Respond effectively and competently to prevent loss of life, injury and
damage, with resources targeted to risk.
iii) Define and deliver our role in the community to improve the well-being and quality of life for our communities.
Developing motivated people to deliver effectively
iv) Invest in the skills and potential of all our people through continuous personal and professional development.
v) Optimise the contribution of all our people in a rewarding, challenging and
safe environment.
Value through sustainable improvement
vi) Develop an organisation that is fit for purpose to meet the changing needs
of our communities.
vii) Deliver value for money with prioritisation of available resources based on
risk.

3. Member Development Aims and Objectives
The Member Development Strategy has the following three key aims:
i) to maintain effective leadership of the Authority through on-going and continuous Member development;
ii) to provide Members with the support, knowledge, skills and information
necessary to enable them to effectively carry out their role:
to ensure that the Fire Authority provides an efficient and effective Fire
and Rescue Service, taking into account the needs of all sections of the community;
to contribute actively to the formation and scrutiny of the Fire
Authority’s decisions, policies, priorities, plans, targets, budget and
service delivery;
to ensure that the Fire Authority delivers value for money; and
to ensure that the Fire Authority is an equal opportunity employer an
Authority that focuses on the safety of employees and considers the needs of all sections of the community.
iii) To ensure Members are made aware and kept up to date with
developments impacting on the organisation through seminars, workshops
and meetings.
These aims will be realised through ensuring that:
this strategy derives from and contributes to the Authority’s strategic
objectives;
key competencies are identified for Authority Members through the Member Training and Development Programme and the Member/Officer Buddy Scheme;
Members have the opportunity to develop specific skills in line with
specific Member Champion roles;
training activities are provided in response to identified organisational,
individual and statutory needs; and
development opportunities provided by constituent councils are incorporated in to the Authority’s development programme.

4. Member Training and Development Programme
Members nominated to County Durham and Darlington Fire and Rescue Authority (CFA) already undertake training and development programmes in
their own Local Authority, but as a Member of the CFA, Members must undertake specific training and development programmes, which includes a
Member Induction programme as stated within the Member Training and Development Programme (MTDP), approved by the Authority on 10 June 2013 and attached as appendix 1
5. Member Champion Roles Member Champions provide the Service with an opportunity to work closely with individual Members to help to develop services and to engage with local
communities, staff, councillors and other stakeholders through a closely aligned officer and member relationship.
The following Member Champion roles have been identified as bringing significant advantages to the Service and Authority:
Prevention
Protection Response Asset Management
Equality and Diversity Health and Safety
Resilience Retained Duty System
The role requirements for Member Champions are set out in Role Descriptions as agreed at the CFA meeting on 10 June 2013 set out at appendix 2a.
Designated Officers from the Service Leadership Team (SLT) will maintain a closely aligned officer and member relationship to ensure Members are involved
and kept up to date with developments in their area. A current list of the Member Champions and their associated officer lead is attached at appendix
2b. Members undertaking a Member Champion role will gain a significant amount of
personal development in relation to the specific role being undertaken, whilst the Service benefits from the local knowledge, experience and public standing of
Members.
6. Member/Officer Buddy System This system provides an alignment of CFA Members to members of the SLT, to provide information and support on a range of Service policy and
organisational issues.
4
Designated Officer buddies make themselves available to Members for the
purpose of developing their overall knowledge of the fire and rescue service. Where possible, buddies will provide answers to questions and queries
themselves or after consulting colleagues. Officer buddies should try to ensure support in away that suits the elected Member. The current Officer/Buddy allocation is attached at appendix 3.
7. Affiliations with Fire Stations and District Teams Each Fire Authority Member is allocated to one or more fire stations. Members are encouraged to develop close links with the District Management team,
undertake regular station visits, provide support to fire and rescue staff and actively promote the work of the fire station within their communities. The benefits of affiliation are:
close links with Members and local stations and crews;
improved communications between Members, officers and local station staff;
improved understanding of roles and responsibilities of Members and
officers; improved opportunity for partnership working through Member
involvement. The Member/Station affiliation programme provides an opportunity for Fire
Authority Members to enhance local accountability through maintaining regular contact with an operational fire station and facilitates a fuller understanding of
the operational response capability, community and business safety services that are provided from fire stations. The current Member affiliation allocation is attached at appendix 4.
8. Member attendances at conference/seminars The modernisation and change agenda in the Fire Service has resulted in an increase in the number of conferences, seminars and events to which Members
are invited. To ensure the Authority achieves value for money whilst investing in the skills
and knowledge of Elected Members a process is in place in respect of Members attendance at fire service related conferences, seminars and events which
details the procedure for feeding back relevant information to the Authority (See appendix 5 for the relevant feedback form).
9. Member workshops/awareness days
Dedicated Member workshop days are incorporated in the CFA calendar on a
timely basis to ensure Members are fully engaged in specific issues and developments.
