    Limited CCTV coverage and access via a Council system

    Wider context from the report

    “Evidence was given about limited CCTV coverage and access thereto via a Council system. This may not be adequate and consideration ought to be given as to whether a more extensive CCTV installation and monitoring thereof may be able to alert the Company and/or others to potential risks of people harming themselves and/or damaging the property and early intervention might be helpful and further, such CCTV may be able to better identify particularly high risk areas, especially dangerous and fragile roofs. ”

    How this respondent action was interpreted

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

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    Seek financing and make a final board decision on installing a night-vision, motion-detecting CCTV system linked to management’s mobile phones.

    Verbatim wording from the response

    “Since the inquest we have had two CCTV firms out to measure the site, both have taken time in what type of CCTV would be needed, the number of CCTV’s, maximising the area of coverage as the design of the mart makes it extremely hard to cover every corner. The conclusion was that CCTV’s with night vision, movement detection and linkage to the internet where the images can be streamed to Mobile phones of company management.”
