FIRE PRECAUTIONS

HEALTH AND SAFETY

These Regulations amend the Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations 1997 (“the principal Regulations”). The Regulations, other than regulation 10, give further effect in Great Britain to article 8(1) and (2) of Council Directive 89/391/EEC on the introduction of measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health of workers at work (OJ No. L 183, 29.6.89, p. 1) and article 6 of, and paragraphs 4 and 5 of each of the annexes to, Council Directive 89/654/EEC concerning the minimum safety and health requirements for the workplace (OJ No. L 393, 30.12.89, p. 1) in so far as those provisions relate to fire precautions and in so far as more specific legislation does not make appropriate provision. Regulation 10 amends regulation 12 of the principal Regulations to extend sections 10 to 10B of the Fire Precautions Act 1971 in respect of places of work in certain vessels.
