Fire safety rules in South Glamorgan

In Wales, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies to non-domestic premises and the common parts of residential buildings, as amended for Wales by the Fire Safety Act 2021. The Welsh Government is reforming building safety separately from England, so duties for taller residential buildings in Wales follow Welsh legislation and guidance rather than the English higher-risk building regime.

Under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 and its fitness for human habitation regulations, landlords must fit a working, mains-powered smoke alarm on each storey of a rented home, interlinked with each other, and a carbon monoxide alarm where there is a combustion appliance.

Wales has its own rules for rented homes under the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, and its own building safety programme, so landlords and building owners here need advice that reflects Welsh law rather than English.
