What is a Standard Fire Safety Certificate?

Before you begin any work on a new building (post planning approval) or make a material change of use to your existing premises, you should apply to the local building control authority for a fire safety certificate. Ideally you should not start work unless you have a fire safety certificate issued by your local authority,
