🇬🇧 English

DIWALL is approved for five years to carry out required safety inspections for tents, marquees, and temporary structures used to receive the public. This matters for event operators, venue managers, and organizers who need a recognized inspection body for fire and crowd-safety compliance. The order also bars DIWALL from inspecting sites where it has a financial dependency beyond the inspection work, helping avoid conflicts of interest. A previous approval order from July 2025 is repealed.
