Institute of Fire Engineers proposal to drop "Engineer" from its name

Given the many discussions on these forums on the elevation or degradation of value in the title of professional "Engineer", this flashed across my screen today from the Engineering Councils Group on LinkedIn:

The Institute of Fire Engineers is seeking views of a proposal to drop "Engineer" from its Charter/title to become the Institute of Fire - the motive being to recognise the other "non-engineer" professionals. An interesting thought/discussion: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4186272/4186272-6417693404800516097?midToken=AQE7XfdYZDnQ2w&trk=eml-b2_anet_digest_of_digests-group_discussions-18-discussion%7Esubject&trkEmail=eml-b2_anet_digest_of_digests-group_discussions-18-discussion%7Esubject-null-1394au%7Ejizt468n%7E2o-null-communities%7Egroup%7Ediscussion&lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Aemail_b2_anet_digest_of_digests%3B0ufgjyqaTWOdcqzjHicqaQ%3D%3D.

Also interesting because they "are really interested in receiving comments from all sectors including registrants with other PEIs".
