Fire safety consultation

What: This consultation covers how the Government is seeking to tighten up fire safety in existing buildings, through reform of the Fire Safety Order and implementation of some recommendations from the Grenfell Inquiry first stage.

Our view: There are a lot of sensible reforms suggested that we support. We highlight some concerns around means of communication and height thresholds used for roll out of some provisions.
