| NEWS // Smoke alarms to be compulsory |
 |
|
The NSW Government has made smoke alarms compulsory in all buildings where people sleep, including homes, hostels, flats, motels and moveable buildings.
The laws, a response to the number of house fires occurring in the winter months from people using fires, heaters and electrical equipment, came into effect from 1 May 2006.
They require the fitting of either battery-operated or hard-wired smoke alarms. In rental accommodation, it will be the responsiblity of the landlord to fit alarms.
