Recommissioning and functional checks

Equipment and Logistics (E&L) are standardising equipment checks to ensure all equipment is maintained appropriately and is fit for purpose. These checks occur: 

• after use at an incident (as part of recommissioning), and
• at regular intervals throughout the year irrespective of use (functional checks). Note: not all equipment has functional checks.

What should I do if equipment fails a check?
