Recommendations
Recommendations (the sheriff's words)I would have thought that serious consideration should be given by anyone owning a caravan to having such a device installed.
I would have thought that the same regulations that apply to other caravans and homes should apply to touring caravans to try and ensure that persons working on gas appliances in touring caravans are Corgi registered.
I would have thought that such an inspection and test, to include road worthiness and the safety of any appliances, should be something which ought to be required.
Under section 28 of the 2016 Act, each recipient of a recommendation must respond within 8 weeks. The 8-week window is counted from the publication date. See how we track responses.
