But it’s a professional job, people are sent abroad to be trained and there are certain techniques which you have to be aware of and there are certain standard operating procedures.”The Home Affairs Minister added that persons found guilty of interfering with members of the fire service when they are conducting their duties will be dealt with according to the new legislation.Additionally, the Bill also increases the penalties for persons who place calls which turn out to be false alarms,Nike Browns #55 Alex Mack Black 2016 Pro Bowl Mens Stitched NFL Elite Jersey, from a $400 fine and six months imprisonment to a fine of $100,Cheap New York Rangers Jerseys,000 and a period of no less than six months imprisonment.For a second conviction, the fine would be $150,000 and imprisonment for two years.“The Fire Service finds itself responding to a call that there is a fire only to find on arrival at a particular point in time that it’s a false alarm.
