Rules that apply in Scotland
The Occupiers' Liability Act 1957 places a duty of care on occupiers towards visitors, so trip hazards, overgrown sightlines and slippery leaf fall on paths need managing. In Scotland, fire safety duties sit under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, and businesses must separate key recyclable materials under the Waste (Scotland) Regulations 2012.
