Legal lesson from Grenfell

Over the last several years, there has been numerous reports of buildings, built primarily during the boom, not meeting fire safety or other building regulations or being deemed unsafe, writes Paul Mills,

To some of us, it appears that the regulations, and particularly the implementation of the rules, as well as a failure to inspect buildings, are lax. How could it be any other way, since no one appears to be responsible?

But there must be tragedies waiting to happen here and the money required to make good the defects is considerable.
