The election to the commission of the representatives of the communes and public establishments for inter-communal cooperation with competence in fire and rescue services is organised by the prefect. The Prefect issues a decree setting out the timetable for the elections and the list of electors, which is made up of the mayors of the department and the chairmen of the said public bodies. These representatives are elected by proportional representation with the highest remainder. No one may be an elector for different categories.
Elections are held by post.
