I visited a large estate last Saturday - I will not name it because to do so would cause panic - in which there are 1,000 timber framed multistorey units, which are a major fire hazard. I was accompanied by two people who have expertise in this area and were of the view that these units are a fire hazard, which was brought to the attention of the authorities some time ago. There may be many more of these Celtic tiger buildings - Kevin Hollingsworth says there is - which are not all council houses wherein there are no fire breaks. What is being done to address this problem?
