I thank both of our guests for being here and I want to express my appreciation for the work that they and all members of the force do. It is incredible work that is incredibly valuable to all of us and is greatly appreciated.

I thank our guests for their submission. Representatives of the Department will be before this committee at a later date. They could not be here today. Mention is made in the opening statement of approximately 1,400 fire safety certificates per year. When a certificate is issued, is there a time limit on it? Is it valid for a limited period? Does it have an expiry date? How are certificates reviewed or updated or indeed, are they?
