Association for Specialist Fire Protection endorses interim findings

摘要

The interim report identifies a lack of clarity in the roles and responsibilities throughout a building's lifecycle; from design and construction to maintenance during occupation. It notes widespread deviation from what is originally designed to what is actually built and highlights inadequate means of assessing and ensuring adequate levels of competency throughout the process. In addition, the report recognises the vital role of installers, noting that 'the integrity and efficacy of products and systems is highly dependent on correctinstallation by competent and knowledgeable persons'.
