Would there be a difference in residential use if the property was a home for a few individuals and then became a hostel for many more people? You would expect a fire certificate would be required at that point.

In regard to the inspections over the past two years, the report stated that apart from the Dublin Fire Brigade there have not been inspections. They were suspended due to Covid-19. Dublin Fire Brigade was inspecting fire safety issue, so the other issues were not being inspected in regard to quality.
