Government Review Says We Are Broadly Satisfied With The Fire Safety Order

摘要

Businesses and enforcers are broadly satisfied with the impact and effectiveness of the Fire Safety Order, according to a much anticipated review from the Communities and Local Government department.rnThe initial evaluation of the effectiveness in England of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order, published last month, sought the opinion of representatives from fire and rescue authorities, the fire safety industry, and responsible persons. It says that overall, fire and rescue services have welcomed the legislation, and that businesses -when aware of its provisions - understand and support the principle of a risk assessed approach. In addition, most of those in businesses able to give an opinion said it was an improvement on previous legislation.
