An analysis of 100 prosecutions under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order (RRO) has highlighted “a lack of appropriate fire doors” as the second highest common charge under the law.

The analysis is a snapshot of 100 prosecutions in the North West of England, undertaken by solicitor Warren Spencer, and shows that 60% of cases involved the lack of a fire alarm, with a lack of appropriate fire doors the next most common charge.
