Wales' fire and rescue services could be given a wider role in keeping people safe under new plans from ministers.
The Welsh Government say the services have been so successful in reducing fires that they are now under-occupied.
Many rural fire stations respond to a handful of fires a month, threatening their sustainability, ministers say.
Firefighters could take on roles currently carried out by the NHS, such as responding to medical emergencies, the government has suggested.
The Fire Brigades Union has been asked to respond.
