It used to be known as Her Majest'y Inspector of Fire Services and was a government agency directly under the control of the Department for Communities and Local Government. The rank of appointment is known as HMFSI - separate arrangements exist in Scotland. Her Majesty's Inspectors are uniformed and seen to be superior to that of a Chief Fire Officer, however they have no power to directly command front line fire crews. In 2007, the role of HMFSI was replaced by the office of the Chief Fire and Rescue Adviser whose responsibilities extend to England and Wales. The Chief Fire & Rescue Advisor also retains the title as the dejure and defacto HM Chief Inspector of Fire Services The role of HMFSI Scotland, will continue its role and functions. A Chief Fire Officer is assisted by one Deputy Chief Fire Officer and a number of Assistant Chief Fire Officers each of whom will be delegated with commanding one or multiple areas of fire and rescue operations such as training, vehicles and equipment, information technology or human resources
