England Section 156 Fire Safety Legislation 

From 1 October 2023, fire safety legislation came into effect which will impose new duties on businesses and buildings owners.
The Fire Safety Order is the primary fire safety legislation in England and Wales, and it applies to all non-domestic premises as well as the communal parts of residential buildings. Changes to this legislation have been introduced through the Building Safety Act 2022 and represent the next phase of the governments fire safety reform programme.
