Carbon Monoxide: Poisoning

Asked by Paul DaviesLabourHome OfficeTabled Answered 18 March 2025UIN 37061

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will extend the Fire Kills campaign to raise awareness of fatal carbon monoxide poisoning.

Answered by Dame Diana Johnson

The Home Office’s Fire Kills campaign raises awareness of fire safety advice and seeks to educate people on how to keep themselves and those they care for safe from the risks of fire in the home.

The campaign supports fire and rescue authorities in delivering their statutory duty to promote fire safety through the provision of fire safety resources, materials and campaign initiatives.

Other bodies, such as the Gas Safe Register promote gas safety messages for the public.
