Introduction

1.These explanatory notes are for the Domestic Fire Safety (Wales) Measure 2011 which was passed by the National Assembly for Wales on 16 February 2011 and approved by Her Majesty in Council on 7 April 2011. They have been prepared by Ann Jones AM, Member in charge of the Measure, to assist understanding of the Measure. They do not form part of the Measure and have not been endorsed by the National Assembly for Wales.

2.The notes need to be read in conjunction with the Measure. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Measure. So, where a section or part of a section does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
