    I’m not sure the EC should say who they believe is at fault. I think they should stick purely with helpfully confirming plain facts such as stating what damage was present in each unit and that it does appear that the water that caused the damage emanated from a leaking dishwasher upstairs. 

    That’s kind of what I meant, Peter, but I can see the subtle difference between stating the facts and apportioning blame. The former can allow insurers or a court to make their own mind up.  My point is, I think the EC’s considered involvement will help the downstairs neighbours achieve a fair and equitable result. 

    Agreed. That’s what I meant too!
