It is good of the ODPM to delay the intoduction of the RR Fire Safety Order to give us more time to consider the guidance but where is the guidance? or should I say consultation documents.
A list of the proposed guides can be found at http://www.odpm.gov.uk/index.asp?id=1162115
but that is all.
Has anyone any information as to when the consultation documents are to be available and also from where, or should we keep watching Scotland for a lead.

The answer is no, it was repealed on 6 April with the 1985 Act. Some local authorities have written their own guidance which is remarkably similar and by doing so have tidied up the diagrams of 12/92. I can e mail you a copy of one of them, I think it is the Peak District if you wish. However, they are very prescriptive and how they will stand afetr 1 October is a different question.

I have been telling some of our borough councils that the RRO sleeping risk guide will be the definitive guide and is the one that we will be referring to in the consultation process. I don't think they're convinced and will probably wait until they lose an appeal.
