After March 2018, will it be illegal to override the safety device & leave the window open by more than 125mm if there are no kids in your unit. If so will there be a Singapore style mosquito police to enforce the law, will there be fines, eviction of tenants, & spiteful neighbours dobbing each other in.
No. All you will need is to have the lock in place and if it is unlocked, then it’s up to you. I would imagine, however, that if you are letting a unit, you would need to have the lock fully in place and functioning when you were showing the unit to prospective tenants and it would be up to the tenants to decide what to do with it once they were in situ.
There are no StrataKops (more’s the pity!)
