s 27 Offence for any person to cause specified fire hazard
27. A person commits an offence if the person does anything or omits to do anything that causes or is likely to cause —(a) any fire safety measure in the premises not to be in proper working order; or (b) any escape route, passageway, common property or limited common property of a building to be obstructed —(i) such as might render escape in the event of fire more difficult; and (ii) which obstruction cannot be easily removed by an individual escaping from a fire, and the person knows or ought to know that the act or omission causes or is likely to cause the effect mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
