Outdated, faulty or ineffective fire extinguishers can place lives and property at risk in the case of a fire emergency. That is why it is critical to have fire extinguishers on your premises serviced annually by qualified engineers.
Enforcement
Fire authorities are the main agency responsible for enforcing the law. They will look into complaints, carry out investigations after fires and carry out inspections. Where poor fire safety management is discovered they may prosecute. If there is a very serious risk to life, the fire authority can issue a notice preventing the premises being used for certain things, or preventing people from using all or part of the premises.
