It was formed by the Metropolitan Fire Brigade Act of 1865 under the leadership of Superintendent Eyre Massey Shaw. It is the second largest of all the fire services in the United Kingdom, after the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service and the fifth-largest in the world (after the Tokyo Fire Department, New York City Fire Department and Paris Fire Brigade) with nearly 5,992 staff, including 5,096 operational firefighters and officers based at 103 fire stations.Ron Dobson is the Commissioner for Fire and Emergency Planning, which includes the position of Chief Fire Officer; he replaced Ken Knight in 2007. Statutory responsibility for the running of the brigade lies with the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority.In 2013/14 the LFB handled 171,067 999 emergency calls. Of the calls it mobilised to, 20,934 were fires, including 10,992 that were of a serious nature, making it one of the busiest fire services in the world. In the same period, it received 3,172 hoax calls, the highest number of any UK fire service, but crews were mobilised to only 1,424 of them.As well as firefighting, the LFB also responds to traffic collisions, floods, trapped-in-lift releases, and other incidents such as those involving hazardous materials, as well as major transport accidents. It also conducts emergency planning and performs fire safety inspections and education. It does not provide an ambulance service as this function is performed by the London Ambulance Service as an independent NHS trust, although all LFB firefighters are trained in first aid and all of its fire engines carry first aid equipment, including basic resuscitators."@en }
