Obviously the consequences of getting it wrong are different. The
Grenfell Tower enquiry will again show that regulations need to be
respected, and steps need to be taken to correct them when they are
out of date.


Are you trying to suggest the Grenfell tragedy was the result of DIY?

If you lived in a high density living area wouldn't you like to be
assured that the neighbour's gas installation was done properly?


I don't live in a tower block.

That's why we have building control officers in the local council.


You think they inspect every job done by a 'Gas Safe' registered person?
