The fire officer who led rescue efforts after the London bombings says co-operation between emergency services is crucial in such circumstances.
London Fire Brigade Deputy Commissioner Roy Bishop commanded rescue operations after the July 7, 2005 bombings on three London Underground trains and a bus, which killed 52 commuters and the four suicide bombers.
He has begun a series of meetings with Australian fire chiefs to discuss the London rescue operation and to learn about Australian emergency incident management along with its command and control systems.
