BS is a matter of money as much as standard

[jokar]

BSI certainly are making money, the 9999 doc is 458 pages long and costs 290 of our nice pounds for non members.

£290 for the worst fire safety standard to be written in the history of standards making is good value for money. Where else can you buy so cheaply something that will one day be in the Guinness Book of Records as such. Its history in the making. Think of the work it will make for consultants and rejoice. (Oh, maybe people already have???) Keeping people safe from fire in buildings is so old fashioned an idea. There's not a lot of interest in that nowadays.  Its all about being trendy and sexy.

[jokar]

Not keen on risk profiling then?, two exits for 100's of people and not 5, can not see the problems, well not until it is builit and people occupy it.

[colin todd]

Risk profiling is fine. Schoolboy approach to fire safety is not a good idea. Oh and where were CLG and their CFOA chums when all this was going on? Oh yes of course, looking in the other direction hoping someone else would sort it all out, failing to meet commitments and shedding anyone who knew their situpon from their humerus. Silly of me to forget.

I must admit that page 8 of this overview sounds like a typical Friday night to me,starting of Category A though to E (TAXI!!).

Don't think Gill would appreciate the smell in the office, she'd probably think I'd been helping Martin 672!

Benzo: They are talking about BS 9999. Think of it as the Titanic: It was launched with great fanfair from a slippery slope, with inadequate design, it costs a small fortune, it is enormous and hence unwieldy, it will sink as soon as it meets an obstacle and it will probably result in injury to people.
The original thread was about the amendment to BS 5839-1 and the guide thereto, the latter of which, for you Benzo, as self-confessed confused of Essex, I will obtain for you at 50% discount should this appeal to you, perhaps as a Christmas gift for Mrs Benzo?

With reference to the Titanic - it was alright when it left here!!
Is the 50% discount only applicable to confused peple in Essex,that being the case I shall obtain a relevant false mail drop address in said area!
