Fire Risk Assessment.

Good morning all,


 What qualifications does a fire risk assessor have to have to be competent, and to be able to comply legally with his designs for fire alarm systems etc?


My customer is getting in a bloke to carry out a fire risk assessment prior to installing smoke/heat/CO alarms in a rental holiday cottage.


Can just any old unqualified body claim to be a fire risk assessor, like estate agents that need no formal qualifications?


Thanks,


Z.

    I think this is why, having rolled back in 2012 from responsibility for such, the Fire Service has now come back to it's previous position and is now more willing to re-assume some of the responsibilities for provision of advice.
