Which statement correctly reflects the Defence Fire and Rescue Service?

• A. They enforce steam engine safety on coastlines
• B. They enforce building regulations for public facilities
• C. They enforce fire safety legislation on armed forces properties
• D. They enforce sports grounds safety

Answer: (C)

The Defence Fire and Rescue Service is the organisation responsible for enforcing fire safety legislation on armed forces properties. Its role covers defence sites and estates, ensuring compliance with fire safety requirements, conducting inspections, and providing prevention and emergency response tailored to military environments. The other options don’t fit because steam engine safety is an outdated concern not tied to the Defence Fire and Rescue Service; building regulations for public facilities are enforced by local building control authorities; and sports grounds safety is handled by different regulatory regimes and bodies.
