Works are under way to remedy fire safety deficiencies at 24 apartment developments around Dublin city, according to Dublin Fire Brigade. “Where fire safety deficiencies are highlighted that require remedial works, Dublin Fire Brigade will work with the OMC [owners’ management companies] or management companies to ensure the deficiencies are rectified and works prioritised on a risk-severity basis,” DFB said in a statement. The number of developments facing potential fire safety issues which have been identified but are not yet being remediated is likely to be significantly higher. Depending on the seriousness of what is found, issues can be addressed immediately, while other issues require the completion of fire-risk assessments or follow-up inspections. A smaller number require more substantial remediation works to varying degrees, it said.
