  5. Roles and Responsibilities of the Police, Fire Service and Paramedics In a terrorist attack, all three agencies are tasked to work together to deal with the event. This is called INTER-AGENCY COOPERATION. The agencies involved in major incidents include: Local Authorities Blue Light Services Military Red Cross Utilities (Gas, Water, Electricity and Telecommunication Companies.)
