  3. I am writing as a resident at the above-named building to raise a concern/enquiry regarding the fire safety compliance of the empty commercial units within the premises. This development was constructed in approx 2016 and to date the commercial units have remained empty. Butleigh House, Healum Avenue Southall Middlesex UB2 4WL I have been informed that these units are not currently fire compliant, specifically due to the absence of an installed fire sprinkler system used as a fire suppression. I understand this may be one of the reasons the units have remained unlet.

Residents were subsequently informed that the area had been assessed by the London Fire Brigade and specialist teams and declared safe, with the Phase 1 car park being reopened. As the recognised tenants’ association representing residents at the development, we are seeking to better understand the nature of the incident, any risks posed to residents, and the measures taken to ensure the ongoing safety of the building. We would therefore be grateful if you could provide the following information, where possible: * The date and time the London Fire Brigade attended the incident. * The nature of the incident and the chemical contamination or hazardous substance involved, if identified. * Whether there was any risk to residents, the building, or the surrounding area. * Whether any evacuation, exclusion zone, or other protective measures were required. * Whether the London Fire Brigade produced an incident report, operational debrief, or any recommendations following attendance. * If so, whether a copy of the report, or an appropriately redacted version, can be provided. * If the report cannot be disclosed in full, whether a summary of the findings and any safety recommendations can be shared. We appreciate that certain operational or personal information may be exempt from disclosure. However, we would be grateful for any information that can be shared to help reassure residents and provide greater transparency regarding the incident and the actions taken to ensure the safety of the development. If this request falls within the scope of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, please treat this email as a formal Freedom of Information request. Thank you for your time and assistance. We look forward to your response. Kind regards, On behalf of the Newell & Bravey Tenants Association The Green Quarter
