I found it useful to go onto the Fire and Emergency department site in our state QFES and read the ‘fire and safety’ requirements.
In Queensland it is recommended:
1. Annual fire and safety audits conducted by QFES or licensed contractors.
2. Smoke Alarms (the electrical type)
3. Variations exist for different types of buildings.
