An Important Question

Fire Strategy
The fire strategy addresses life safety under the Building Regulations, and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order, but not fire risk assessments, which are the client's responsibility.It does not specifically address either property protection, or business disruption. Building insurers should be consulted over the proposals since their preferences are sometimes more onerous.
