How we prioritise issues
We receive over 1,000 consequential maintenance, enforcement and access enquiries each year. To ensure public safety and manage workloads effectively, we assign a priority to all issues. We call this our Priority Statement. We assess the risk relating to public safety by combining the severity of a potential hazard and the likelihood of its occurrence. We address issues in order of priority from 1 (high) to 5 (low), as resources allow. If you require a copy of the Priority Statement, please contact us by email to request it.
