Since 2017, the operational activity of the CFOA has been delivered by the new National Fire Chiefs Council.
The CFOA website says, "CFOA's Aim is to continue as the professional voice of the UK Fire Service, assisting and supporting our members to fulfil their leadership role in improving the well being of local communities in all matters relating to the Fire Services' activities.
As one example of setting policy, the CFOA was involved in the planning process for response times for the now-abandoned FiReControl project.
[2] Its aim was to consolidate the number of control rooms that answer emergency calls in England from 46 to nine, by 2009.
The home page of the CFOA's website has a list of current policies and initiatives, with information and press releases attached.
