    Christopher Carlton Hart was found collapsed in a flat fire on 13 January 2019 and later died at Stepping Hill Hospital from complications of injuries sustained in the fire.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Lack of tenant conditions requiring furniture conformity with relevant fire safety standards

    Wider context from the report

    “1) The court heard evidence that toxic fumes from furniture such as sofas which do not conform to relevant fire safety standards can quickly incapacitate someone who breathes them in.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Failure to undertake a formal review of sprinkler introduction across properties

    Wider context from the report

    “2) The court also heard evidence that, had a sprinkler system been installed within the flat, the chances of Mr Hart surviving the fire would have been significant increased. It is a matter of concern that, notwithstanding Mr Hart’s death, Johnnie Johnson Housing is apparently yet to undertake any formal review as to the introduction of sprinklers into all or a proportion of its properties. ”

    How this respondent position was interpreted

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the published response wording shown below.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    The general-needs home was not considered high risk, so installing sprinklers was not warranted.

    Verbatim wording from the response

    “I thought it useful to write back, just to re-iterate that there is no further action for us to take here. Mr Jenrick’s comments relate firstly to ‘blocks’. Mr Hart lived in a general needs home, built to standard in 1999. There was no high risk identified here to have installed a sprinkler.”
