    Of course the Owners Corporation can be liable, it’s called occupier’s liability.  Why do OC’s have public liability insurance?  Being a strata scheme doesn’t exempt an Owners Corporation from that kind of thing.

     

    For example refer here, where the strata manager was held liable in part.
