Is now the time for a National Fire Safe Register?

摘要

With the responsibilities placed on building occupiers by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order having led to a renewed focus ensuring the competency of all those involved in the installation and maintenance of fire protection systems, BM TRADA feels the time is right to discuss the viability of a competent person scheme in the fire sector. The Fire Sector Summit session, chaired by Mike Wood of the Passive Fire Protection Federation at BM TRADA's request, considered all aspects of fire safety management in existing buildings, focusing on quality, competence and compliance, and discussed the need and potential benefits of such a scheme before looking at options for its structure, management and use.
