The Human Resources Sub-Committee is part of the Nottinghamshire and City of Nottingham Fire and Rescue Authority, which oversees the Fire and Rescue Service's operational needs. This sub-committee, composed of five councillors, typically meets four times a year and its meetings are open to the public. It focuses on matters related to the people, equipment, and training required for the Fire and Rescue Service's duties, including fire prevention, firefighting, rescue operations, and emergency responses. The Authority itself makes key decisions on strategy, policy, and budget.
