Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (the \u201cFire Safety Order\u201d), responsible persons for hotels must ensure that they have completed a fire risk assessment and that it is regularly reviewed to ensure that the fire safety measures in place remain appropriate and are being adequately maintained. This includes assessing and where appropriate, taking the necessary steps to reduce the risk on the external walls which may include cladding.<\/p>
All hotels that have confirmed ACM cladding have been visited by the local fire and rescue service to ensure that the appropriate risk mitigation measures are in place. Hotels will have a range of comprehensive fire safety measures which may include a 24-hour concierge, simultaneous fire evacuation strategy and a fully functioning alarm system. If hotels do not have sufficient mitigating measures, the fire and rescue service has the power to take appropriate enforcement action.<\/p>
The Department continues to work with the Home Office and National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC) to ensure correct fire safety arrangements are in place on all high-rise hotels to mitigate risks and to ensure remediation is taking place.<\/p>

The total number of registered electors in Northern Ireland registered to vote in more than one constituency is 23.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Electoral Office for Northern Ireland holds data in relation to each constituency on how many people are also registered to vote in another constituency. In some constituencies this applies to fewer than five people. A full answer would risk the identification of individuals and is therefore not provided.<\/p>
