Id	SLE3_09
Title	Emergency Service List
Description	The Emergency Service List is a sub-set of the Local Government Services List. It splits out the Emergency Services that are performed across the public sector especially in conjunction with Local Government. Not all of the services in the list will be performed but it gives a common set of actions from which to choose. It is intended to expand this list further to include Police and Ambulance Services. The list in its current form was as a result of collaboration between The Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service. Additions from other Emergency Service Providers are welcomed via The Information Management and Controlled Lists Forum: http://www.esd.org.uk/forums/viewforum.php?f=83&start=0#83 A service is a set of actions or activities undertaken by a council (or other public sector body) to deliver a product or conclusion. Services are usually provided at the request of a customer either as a one-off request (for example crime prevention home security assessment, fire certificates) or as a result of the circumstances of the customer (for example emergency water flood rescue, securing premises after incident). Services are provided by a public sector body either as a power (a legal right), a duty (a legal obligation) or at its discretion. A service list provides a standard way of referring to each service when communicating within and between organisations. It uses unique numeric identifiers for each service, irrespective of the language and naming conventions that are used by different people and organisations to identify or describe services. The Emergency Service List uses terminology that is recognised within the public sector but may not necessarily be understood by the customer. Other lists provide a customer facing view of services which can be used to provide information on services to the public (such as in a web site). Use - to define a core set of tasks that are common to most public sector bodies, allowing communication across boundaries by describing the responsibilities unequivocally within a controlled list of terms.
