Time Scale For Remaining Installation of Smoke Alarms

The request was partially successful.

Dear The Glasgow Housing Association Limited,

Please can you provide me with an answer to the following:

1) How many GHA properties and any associated properties such as cube etc( only if GHA oversees those and hence responsible for planning their smoke alarms too if applicable) (dwellings: flats, houses etc etc) in Glasgow are still yet to be installed with Smoke Alarms in accordance to the new Scottish Government law?

2) With reference to the number given in question one above, considering that smoke alarm installation will take around 2 hours per home/flat/dwelling etc to install how many working days or months would this approximately be expected to take (for all GHA social housing including any associated housing stock such as cube = if GHA is responsible for overseeing that) for all installations to be complete? (I refer also to the fact that I am aware that Scottish Government have indeed included flexibility for this purpose regarding their current deadline).

Thank you

Yours faithfully,

Sarah Summers
