Legal Requirements in Stockton on Tees (England)

Properties in Stockton on Tees (Durham, England) fall under English law. The main rules are:

Whether emergency lighting is needed, and how much, follows from the fire risk assessment. Government fire risk assessment guidance refers to BS 5266-1 as the code of practice for emergency lighting. The same legal basis applies in Wales.
