摘要

Since the loss of 72 lives in the Grenfell Tower fire on 14th June, 2017, many questions have been asked within the construction, fire consultancy and legal industries about their respective relationship to fire safety in buildings. It is clear that it is not just the owners of a buildingthat are responsible for upholding fire safety, and ‘ignorance is not bliss’ when it comes to complying with fire safety obligations. Any duty holder, whether they are owners, occupiers, managers or tenants of a building that is involved in a refurbishment, installation designor construction, has to understand what being a duty holder means. The general enforcement of fire safety could see huge fines loosely based on the Health and Safety Sentencing Guidelines, which were introduced in the UK in 2016. While the guidelines do not directly apply to fire safety cases,this situation may change post a ‘Grenfell prosecution’ (which we are likely to see in the near future) in order to reflect that fire safety should be dealt with just as seriously as health and safety in the UK. It is not enough to simply remediate after an incident; the risk ofharm or injury in the event of a fire should be dealt with on a preventative and proactive basis. This paper explores the legal ramifications of the Grenfell fire and other similar catastrophic events, who the duty holders are, the impact of sentencing guidelines on corporate and individualduty holders and what this could all mean for future fire safety investigations and prosecutions.
