The coroner's concerns
1. lack of automatic water suppression systems in residential properties housing vulnerable individuals
“Immediate and positive consideration of the compulsory inclusion in the design, planning and building phases for residential properties (especially for those properties housing vulnerable individuals) of Automatic Water Suppression Systems more commonly known as 'domestic sprinklers' so as to provide further safeguards in the event of accidental or indeed deliberate fires in such premises.”
