Abstract

Radical changes are being planned in the way the Fire Precautions Act (Facilities, May 1985) is administered in the United Kingdom. The Home Office is suggesting a system of 'self-certification' so that the role of the fire authorities can be reduced. Facilities managers should take note of this possible development as the burden of fire safety may weigh more heavily on their shoulders. These are controversial proposals and interested parties have the chance to make their opinions count. A consultation process is under way and continues until the end of the year. Copies of the review document are available from the Home Office (see references).
