I know. A position I disapprove of.

However, an inspection pit with a flimsy cover cannot be regarded as a
"man trap" can it?

I have read that one has a duty of care towards burglars. I hope that this
is not true, but fear that is.

It's reasonable to expect care towards members of the emergency services
who, for a variety of reasons, might be on your premises.
