The Fire Safety Act 2021 is an effort on behalf of HM Government to improve fire safety in multi-occupancy domestic premises and its implementation is a direct result of the changes demanded following the tragedy at Grenfell Tower in 2017. The Act amends the current Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (FSO), making amendments to include the risks posed by the external façade of buildings and individual entrance doors to flats, thereby implementing the recommendations made by the Grenfell Tower Inquiry.
