Hi all.
Could you please help me with the following? This is relation to a rental property in WA. I think all states have different laws.
1) is it mandatory to have smoke alarms in a rental property?
2) if so do they have to be hardwired?
3) does anyone know when this came into effect (if it has)?
4) are safety switches mandatory in a rental property?
5) does anyone know when this came into effect?
the PM for the house I am purchasing currently has advised that the new laws only came into effect from July 1 this year and as the house was tenanted at the time nothing needed to be done until a change of tenant, but that is different from my understanding, so if anyone can assist it'll be much appreciated.
Thanks very much all
