David Hoe on Civil Defence Shelter and Fire Safety (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill

14:29 Min

What exactly is considered an obstruction of fire safety access and what might building owners and occupiers reasonably be expected to do about it? How can the safety and serviceability of older bomb shelters be ensured and if problems are discovered years later, would new homeowners have to pay for inspection or replacement? How frequently will audits be conducted on premises under a new class licensing regime for petroleum and flammable materials? These questions were raised by MP David Hoe in parliament on Tuesday (Sep 8).
