[Technical Regulations for Fire Safety in Buildings and Venues to enhance fire safety in Buildings]

According to the "Macao Special Administrative Region Residential Housing Policy Study" pointed out that as of the end of June last year, there were more than 30,000 residential units aged 40 years and above in Australia, accounting for about 13.5% of the total number of units. Macao is dominated by old areas, about two-thirds of the buildings are 30 years old or above, more than 4,200 buildings, old dilapidated low-rise buildings in old areas due to the aging of the structure, facilities and other problems, resulting in public safety and health hazards.

Among them, many old buildings and tenement buildings have outdated fire fighting equipment, and there are different degrees of fire hazards. In the past, after the fire broke out in the old building, the best time to fight the fire was delayed due to the problem of fire fighting equipment, which caused heavy losses to the lives and property of residents. In addition, the owners of many existing buildings have a low awareness of improving and updating fire service equipment, and there are "three no buildings" in Macau: no owners' associations, no management companies and no attention from tenants. Some building roof doors are locked for a long time, and there are hidden dangers in fire safety.

The "Legal System of Fire Safety in Buildings and Venues" and the "Approval (Technical Regulations on Fire Safety in Buildings and Venues)" administrative regulations have been promulgated and come into effect on August 17, 2022. It is believed that it can effectively improve the situation of accumulation of debris in fire escape routes in "three no buildings", and in conjunction with the powers of the works department, ensure the safety and smooth flow of escape routes when emergency incidents occur.

On the other hand, by assigning responsibility for fire safety in buildings, the legislation ensures that the relevant responsible persons such as the building Management Committee have sufficient safety awareness, consciously maintain the effective operation of the fire safety system in buildings according to the professional advice of the Fire Protection Bureau, and submit relevant results to the fire Protection Bureau and accept regular supervision, so that the fire Protection Bureau can have a more comprehensive review of the overall fire safety of buildings and buildings. It is hoped that the authorities will keep pace with The Times, continuously adjust the standards of fire prevention work, and continuously improve the quality of fire prevention work through smart management and investment in new technologies, so as to safeguard the life safety of the city and its residents as a whole.
