Capital Emergency Services conducted a practical fire and rescue drill at the Prime Minister's Office, leading to the discovery of several safety flaws. The drill highlighted the weak performance of the fire alarm and siren, as well as the gate's inability to open in the event of a power outage. Authorities have since directed the implementation of emergency and manual override systems.
Emergency teams were alerted to the fire call within one minute, while rescue teams responded swiftly. The fire alarm was received at 11:32 am, and G-5's fire tender arrived at the Prime Minister's Office just four minutes later. A rescue van and Bronto sky lift followed suit, reaching the scene within nine minutes. The drill concluded at 11:58 am.
Officials deemed the overall fire and rescue response from Capital Emergency Services to be satisfactory.
