  Stated action in the response to the earlier report

  “The coroner has reported that there is a risk of future deaths owing to the fact that there were no smoke detectors fitted to the property. A partial re-wire had taken place in 2008, but no hard wired detection equipment installed, as per the existing Electrical Specification (in which hard-wired smoke detectors are only required to be installed as part of a full re-wire).”
