During the European Fire Safety Week 2024, the European Parliament hosted a high-level political discussion on the fire safety priorities for 2024-2029, bringing together key policymakers, Members of the European Parliament, and representatives from multiple DGs of the European Commission.

While fire safety is a national competence, its impact on and interaction with key EU policies demonstrate a clear need for EU-level coordination. 

📌 Highlights of the discussion

✅ The need for a strategic European approach to improve coordination of fire safety policies.

✅ Addressing fire risks related to the energy transition and evolving construction methods.
